| | 59 | The messages sent from the NodeHandler to the NodeAgent consist of commands to be executed on |
| | 60 | the NodeAgent. These messages may be sent to all the nodes in the multicast group or to a subset of the nodes in the multicast group based on node Alias. If the message has to be sent to a subset of the nodes, then the NodeHandler will indicate as such to the communication |
| | 61 | layer and also identify the set of nodes which will receive the message. Otherwise, by default, the communication layer will send the message to all the nodes. |

| | 63 | Since, the ACL/LCT implementation is not fully reliable in the sense that it doesn't guarantee reliable delivery, |
| | 64 | is the reason for putting a error correction mechanism on top. |
