Hi Howard,

I just wanna study any feature that the router can be configured, as this
seems a valid topic in CCIE LAB exam.

Yeah, I would like to similate the situation with unidirectional link, how
can I setup the serial port?

You're right, I have a return path and I am setup to test the multicast
traffic.

I have read though the following link already and would like to have a test
on it. But I don't know how to similate a uni-directional link using simply
Serial, or Ethernet etc.

Any idea?

Thx a lot!

Be sure you understand what ULDR does. While it's called
"Unidirectional Link Routing," for data applications, it really tends
to need a reverse channel, often slow, for acknowledgements and the
like. The original intention for ULDR in the IETF was for video
broadcasts and the like, which are truly one-way applications, and
often multicast. I'd strongly recommend reading the IETF documents
and even getting on the mailing list/reading the archives.

Most of the development is in France and Japan.

What is the problem you are trying to solve?
