I would like to know how router alert is taken care in the
implementation at router/kernal when
a Router Alert option is given in a packet. 
And how an application program should do for getting the 
the packets besides setting alert option and forward the packet out
after the processing.

I understand currently IGMP and RSVP need Router Alert.
If I need to insert some messages at router into selected application
packets encapsulated in UDP, can I do that? 

Thanks,

Xin
