This issue lists some ideas and future improvements that could be performed to HPIM-DM implementation/specification.

  • Relax the interest storage requirement of Assert Losers. Requires updating the specification.
  • BFD support?
  • Multiple physical interfaces of the same router directly connected to the source. If these interfaces are not a LAG there is the possibility of a loop (one interface considered root and the other(s) non-root -> which may cause data packets to be forwarded again to the source subnet by the non-root interface). Check specification and implementation if there is no issue (DONE Source link loop prevention #6).
  • Security -> Implement control message integrity & authentication check (DONE Security #3).
  • IGMPv3 and MLDv2.
  • IPv6 multicast routing support (update Kernel and implement MLD). (DONE IPv6 multicast routing support #7)
  • Option to ignore the Feasibility Condition in determining the tree state. This may be useful in sub-topologies where it is impossible to form a network loop and in which there are different routing protocols being used (ex: all routers use OSPF but a subset uses default static routes).
  • All code should be in hpimdm package (in order to allow hpim-dm and pim-dm implementations to coexist). (DONE Move all code to package hpimdm #4)
  • More automation on tests.
  • Forwarding state of a non-root interface that was AW should be preserved for a given amount of time to prevent loss of data packets when the AW changes. (DONE Hold forwarding state assert #5)
  • Better debug messages.
  • Try to remove tcpdump dependency (manually create BPF filter bytecode).
  • Change API used to access unicast routing information (ipdb will become deprecated).
  • Perform tests using other environment (current one does not have support for IPv6 multicast routing - limitations at the kernel level).
  • Multiple tables support. (DONE)
  • Have a configuration file to configure everything on startup.(DONE)
  • Multicast routing protocol takes into consideration interest of own router (router has application that joined some multicast groups)

* Implement timer to hold forwarding state when current assert winner loses assert

* fix verification of forwarding state on hold (check thread id)

* Include -hfs in README
