Devise a protocol for basic multicast over IP multicast.
What will be an ideal response?
We can use the algorithm for reliable multicast, except that processes do not retain copies of the messages that they have delivered (and nor do they piggy back acknowledgements on the messages that they multicast). If the sender is correct, a receiver can fetch a missing message from the sender; but if the sender crashes then a message may be delivered to some members of the group but not others.
