[Xorp-users] querry related with cache miss control message

[bhavin81 at iitb.ac.in]

Hello Friends,

      There are 3 control messages provied by kernel while parsing multicast
packet :
(a)Cache miss
(b)Wrond iif
(c)Whole pkt.

     S,G entry is entered inside the MFC. Now if any data pkt arrives and
it does not find entry inside MFC then kernel will generate the cache
miss message which can be processed and we can look in to MRT. Now my
question is
what happens to the data packet since kernel only passes the header and
control message to the user.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Bhavin.
