Agreed. I wouldn't know the answer to this nor do I care....
Not because it's not important and not because i couldn't figure it out, but=
because it's like asking me to implement the spec.. Now if you asked me abo=
ut what a bgp marker or mp-nlri looks like I can answer that. Same goes for w=
hy ssm, and what multicast groups shouldn't be forwarded off-LAN. (And those=
that you might want to hack around with an application relay to other LANs)=
