  • Group creation and deletion
  • Joining and leaving of groups
  • Membership detection and notification about joined/left/crashed members
  • Detection and removal of crashed members
  • Sending and receiving of member-to-group messages point-to-multipoint
  • Sending and receiving of member-to-member messages point-to-point
