IP multicast provides a service that suffers from omission failures. Make a test kit, to discover the conditions under which a multicast message is sometimes dropped by one of the members of the multicast group. The test kit should be designed to allow for multiple sending processes

What will be an ideal response?


The program should be altered so that it can run as a sender or just a receiver. A program argument could specify its role. As in Exercise the number of messages and their size should be variable and a sequence number should be sent with each one. Each recipient records the last sequence number from each sender (sender IP address can be retrieved from datagrams) and prints out any missing sequence numbers. Test with several senders and receivers and message sizes to discover the load required to cause dropped messages.The test kit should be designed to allow for multiple sending processes.
