Abstract
Internet multicast is transitioning from the flat, virtual
topology known as the Multicast Backbone (MBone) to a
hierarchical, globally deployed service. This transition in-
troduces a number of important management issues. In
particular, it is believed that the success of multicast on
a large scale partly depends on the availability of good
management tools. In this paper, we address the specific
management problem of monitoring multicast reachability.
