 INET-1.99.4 (March 20, 2012)
 ----------------------------
 
+This version contains mainly bugfixes, plus some features that did not make
+into the previous release. Requires OMNeT++ 4.2 (version 4.2.1 suggested).
+
+ - Added IPv4NetworkConfigurator, a new network configurator for IPv4
+
+ This is intended to replace both routing files (.irt/.mrt) and
+ specialized network configurators like FlatNetworkConfigurator,
+ and do much more.
+
+ Covers address assignment (manual, automatic), adding manual routes,
+ setting up static routing, optimizing the routing tables, etc.
+ Unlike FlatNetworkConfigurator, it will generate per-interface
+ addresses. Wireless networks are also supported.
+
+ - Added an IGMPv2 implementation, based on code contributed by Jesse Jones
+
+ Changes in IPv4 multicast routing:
+ - We now use reverse path forwarding (routing entry contains
+ source address/mask, multicast group, parent (incoming) interface
+ and the set of child (outgoing) interfaces).
+ - The new routing table enables to specify a separate multicast
+ routing tree per source network and multicast group. (Old
+ implementation used a common tree for each source.) The multicast
+ routing tree is represented by IPv4MulticastRoute entries.
+ - IRoutingTable has been extended with methods manipulating the
+ multicast routing entries. Notifications are generated, when
+ the multicast routing table changes.
+ - IPv4 multicast routing algorithm uses the multicast routes
+ for forwarding decisions.
+ - When HL does not specify the multicast interface for outgoing
+ datagrams, then it is selected according to the routing table
+ or the source address of the datagram.
+
+ Change from previous behavior:
+ - packets sent to a multicast address from higher layer: it used
+ to go out on each interface that had a matching route in the
+ routing table (unless mcast interface was specified by HL).
+ Now it only goes out on the first match route's interface;
+ if there's no match it goes out on the 1st multicast interface
+ (unless mcast interface was specified by HL). If you want to
+ send on multiple interfaces, you have to send multiple packets
+ from the higher layer.
+
+ - multicast forwarding: no longer takes into account the routes
+ in the unticast routing table that have mcast destinations.
+ Only the (new format) multicast table is used. This new
+ multicast routing table can only be configured with
+ IPv4NetworkConfigurator, routing files don't support it.
+ - mobility: fixed infinite loop when nextChange is set to current
+ simulation time
+
+ - base: Added createNode(), createLink() factory methods to Topology class.
+
+ - Enhancements in IPvXAddressResolver. The new resolver allows you
+ to specify an interface based on which module the interface is
+ connected to. 
+
+ - Added a RoutingTableRecorder module that records all the changes
+ in the routing table to a file.
+
+ - OSPF & BGP fix:
+ - gateway is now correcty set on routing table entries.
+ - eliminated redundant nextHop field from routing table entries
+
+ - Fixed routing table change notifications.
+
+ - Added printMulticastRoutingTable() to IRoutingTable
+
+ - Added IPingApp interface and support for more than one PingApp
+ in a host.
+
+ - Changes in the UDP socket API:
+
+ The first call on an UDP socket do not need to be bind() or connect()
+ anymore. It is possible to create a socket and sending data immediately
+ by calling sendTo(). It is also possible to set socket options before
+ calling connect() or bind(). connect() can be called several times.
+ However the bind() call fails if the socket is already bound.
+
+ - LDP: The LDP module now creates a separate UDP socket for each
+ multicast interface of the node, sets the multicast interface
+ on them, and sends a copy of LDP-Hellos via each socket.
+
+ - ICMP messages are correctly handled now in all TCP implementations
+ (in LwIP and NSC, too)
+
+See ChangeLogs in individual source folders for more information.
