Abstract :
A routing protocol to provide an efficient multicasting service to mobile hosts in IPv6 based networks is proposed. The main purpose of the algorithm is to reduce both the number of multicast tree reconstructions and multicast service disruption time. The proposed protocol satisfies the maximum tolerable transfer delay and supports the maximum tunnelling service
