� The routers exchange their<br />

routing information<br />

� By means of IGMP<br />

messages, group<br />

associations are being<br />

passed on<br />

� To each multicast address<br />

the routers administrate<br />

routing information<br />

� The routing protocol computes the<br />

shortest paths to all computers in<br />

the network<br />

� Routers, which do not have<br />

participants in their network, can<br />

send back Pruning Messages; next<br />

time no more multicast packets are<br />

sent to this routers<br />

Details vary by the specific protocol used!<br />
