All things related to multicast

[Brent Sweeny <>]

Bob, what exactly do you mean by such a 'cookbook'? is it how to configure
mcast on a router, or how to use it as an end-user, or how to write apps for
it, or how to troubleshoot it on your enterprise network, or something else? 

there's (at least) one document that calls itself a multicast cookbook
already (of the first type above, specifically how does one configure
their edge router to mcast-peer with Abilene) on the Abilene website, at
http://www.abilene.iu.edu/mccook.html.
