With the growth of the Internet, applications using the reliable multicast protocol are increasing. Two important requirements of reliable multicasting are reliability and scalability. To enhance scalability, many methods have been proposed. A typical method is local recovery scheme. This paper proposes a new stable and elective protocol with the following features. The first is to apply the discipline of the separations of concerns to NAK message. By dividing the functions of the NAK message into the error recovery request and the NAK-suppression, each function can be optimized. Second, a local representative, which is selected gradually and distributively, executes error recovery in somewhat deterministic manner. Finally, by dynamically adjusting the TTL value of the control message, the error recovery domain can be optimized. The proposed scheme has been implemented and experimented on Network Simulator. Compared to the existing schemes, the performance results show that scalability has not only been enhanced but also error recovery time and network overhead have been reduced.
