3.1.4.1 Receive ProbeMatch

  • Article

This event is triggered by the WSD layer on receiving a response to a Probe as specified in section 3.2.4.1. The peer that receives a ProbeMatch message MUST check the <Types> and <XAddrs> elements to verify that the response was sent by a peer on the local subnet, and it MUST check the HoHoDks to verify that at least one is associated with a Probe message on the Outstanding Probe List. If so, it MUST report the IP address and the port number from the <XAddrs> element of the ProbeMatch message and the relevant HoHoDk from the <Scopes> element of the ProbeMatch message to the higher layer.

All malformed ProbeMatch messages MUST be silently discarded.
