Hi,

This is regarding the information furnished in "Appendix A.2  Host
Suppression"

Host suppression doesn't have any meaning for IGMPv3. This is because =
IGMPv3=20
report message includes different records, which in turn includes mode =
and=20
source list information for a group. The chances of mode type and source =
list
being same for two
hosts on the same network being remote, host suppression doesn't have =
any
logic in=20
IGMPv3. Whereas in IGMPv2, the report packet consisted of only the group
address and=20
a single report would suffice per group per network.=20

This point has to be mentioned clearly in the appendix section.

Thanks,
Srivatsan
