What happens If I am send streams with different server address other than the requested server address. Whether stream will forward to user or it won't. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 125.17.98.12 (talk)

Merge

Merging with Source-Specific Multicast sounds like a good idea to me.

Definitely. Not having to look in two places to get a complete picture is a good idea.

You did not get it. The suggestion is just about combining two duplicate articles, and should be done immediately with no discussion.

Source code examples

I am removing the source code example from this article, since Wikipedia is not a manual, and a code example has little encyclopedic value in this article — what matters is what functionality the protocol provides, not how certain operating systems have decided to interface it to the developer. Not to mention that programming languages and libraries tend to wrap the OS-specific API within their own, different one.

Note that even the TCP article has any source code examples. -- intgr ^#%@! 17:59, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well maybe you are right but it would be helpfull to have at least link for information how to code SSM. There is many examples in the Internet about the TCP, nothing for SSM. I think that it would be really helpful (at lest to me) to have any external link to code example.--Radone1 15:51, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
