      Internet Group membership Authentication Protocol (IGAP)

   This memo documents the Internet Group membership Authentication
   Protocol (IGAP), a protocol developed by NTT, Nortel Networks and
   Panasonic. IGAP provides IGMP's group membership control between
   hosts and their first-hop routers, with the addition of user
   authentication and accounting. IGAP is designed to be used in a
   controlled or managed IPv4 multicast environment, when
   authentication and accounting are required. The user authentication
   information in IGAP can enable a provider to control the
   distribution of the multicast traffic as well as to collect real
   time user accounting information in an environment where the
   last-hop access networks are not shared.


Sincerely,

Sandy Ginoza - USC/ISI
