Hi, Qassim -- Yes, this is exactly how it works. All Beacon clients
withint he same multicast group send and receive to each other in a full
(multicast) mesh.
More information is at:
http://dast.nlanr.net/projects/beacon/
and I'll be giving a presentation on the Beacon at the Joint Techs meeting
next week. After that meeting, I'll put the presentation up on the page as
well.
Hope this helps!
