[j-nsp] IPv6 multicast -- stuck in spt-pending

[Josef Buchsteiner]

DR>  Docs say, that spt-pending means "The software has initiated the switch
DR>  to the shortest-path tree for this source.". Fact is, that the router
DR>  is already on the SPT (=RPT). Fact is too, that it says that it's
DR>  waiting for something to happen which already DID happen. This is just
DR>  irritation (not just to me, but other Multicast folks who were looking
DR>  with me on the same alledged problem).

DR>  Can you please replace "spt-pending" with something like "spt=rpt" (or
DR>  just the most obvious "spt") for the case SPT=RPT? This would clear
DR>  things up and be unambiguos. People think there's something wrong that
DR>  the router (looks as if it) got stuck in a state which should be only
DR>  very transient.



     would spt-is-rp ok for you ?

DR>  Now _I_ know. Others _will_ waste time on that too. Docs don't describe
DR>  what you do describe here.

     will be done too

     thanks
