RFC 1075: Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol
In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC
This RFC describes a distance-vector-style routing protocol for routing multicast datagrams through an internet. It is derived from the Routing Information Protocol (RIP), and implements multicasting as described in RFC-1054. This is an experimental protocol, and its implementation is not recommended at this time.
