Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for communicating among stations in a network. Broadcast or multicast traffic in the network can be selectively retransmitted according to one or more retransmissions rules established for the network. Retransmission rules can be established based on an analysis of network topology data and designed to minimize redundant transmissions in the network. MAC encapsulation mechanisms can be used to identify duplicate transmissions.
