Claim 1:
2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
detecting by the receiving LLN device, within the one multicast data message specifying the lowest distance value, a wireless transceiver tuning value associated with the one neighboring transmitting LLN device, and a multicast objective function identifier; and
determining, by the receiving LLN device, receiver metrics associated with reception of the one multicast data message specifying the lowest distance value;
the determining of the updated distance including determining a corresponding rank of the receiving LLN device as a multicast rank based on executing an objective function, identified by the multicast objective function identifier, relative to the wireless transceiver tuning value and the receiver metrics, and applying the multicast rank to the rank difference between the corresponding neighboring transmitting LLN device.
