■ Case 2: the leaving member is the last member connected to the designated LMR and
the BNR connecting this LMR will stay a BNR after member leaving the multicast
group.
■ Case 3 : the leaving member is the last member connected to the designated LMR and
the BNR connecting this LMR will not be a BNR any more.
In this section these cases will be discussed in detail assuming that S is the multicast group
source node, N1 to N3 are IMRs or BNRs, M1 to M5 are LMRs and (a, b) and (x) are
receivers already joined or need to leave the multicast tree respectively.
■ Case 1:
In this case, Figure 4.9, the leaving member (x) sends a leaveM message to its designated
LMR (M3), M3 will know that the leaving member (x) is not the last member connected to it.
This is done by checking the entries in the Multicast Destination Table (MDT) maintained
each LMR.

Leave message
RqM
The designated LMR (M3) will initiate a RqM0(01) message and forwards it directly to the
source. Because the S bit flag is 0, the intermediate IMRs or BNRs will not process this
message and it will take a short period of time to arrive the source. It worth noting that there
is no changing in the multicast tree because member (x) leaving the group.
