This paper presents FMP, a flexible multicast protocol based on the SRM algorithm in order to guarantee a reliable multipoint communication support. FMP is intended to strengthen the SRM repair/request policies, as well as to optimise the recovery treatments in case of failure occurence. Moreover, FMP is designed to meet the variety of needs of multicast applications by providing a mean to select the suitable service at the application level. Estelle is used to specify one of the FMP's functionalities, i.e. the reliable multicast.
