Abstract
This document describes a detailed model of IPv4 multicast with RSVP
that has been developed using the OPNET simulation package [4], with
protocol procedures defined in the C language. The model was
developed to allow investigation of performance constraints on
routing but should have wide applicability in the Internet
multicast/resource reservation community. We are making this model
publicly available with the intention that it can be used to provide
expanded studies of resource-reserved multicasting.
