Anycast is a new communication service defined in IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6) [6]. An anycast message is the one that should be delivered to the 'nearest' member in a group of designated recipients. The ¡¥nearest¡¦ is not always the ¡¥best¡¦ member. In this paper, we propose a routing protocol for anycast message. It is composed of two subprotocols: the routing table establishment subprotocol and the packet forwarding subprotocol. In the routing table establishment subprotocol, we propose a mininum delay path method (MDP). We get a minimum delay path from router to destination by MDP. In the packet forwarding protocol, we propose a minimum delay and load balancing method (MDLB). We dispatch traffic load to a server with minimum delay and light load by MDLB. The performance has demonstrated the benefits of MDP and MDLB in reducing end-to-end delay and increasing throughput of network.
