So we're looking to complicate things for the same of complicating them? Using a predictable "security" doesn't exactly make things secure does it? On the links that you are running PIM or IGMP on, do you not have a predictable set of clients and therefore problems? Or are we trying to protect against something I'm not thinking of? ;) Scott Glen Kent wrote:
Would encrypting multicast not fundamentally break the concept of multicast itself, unless you're encrypting multicast traffic over a backbone?
No, i wasnt alluding to encrypting the multicast traffic. I was thinking of using ESP-NULL (AH is optional) for the IGMP/PIM packets.
Affably, Kent
