IP Multicast
IP Multicast enables a single host to distribute information to
multiple recipients. To do this, multicast protocols use class D IP
addresses to specify specific multicast groups to which information is
sent. The class D IP address used by multicast routing protocols,
ranges from 224.0.0.1 to 224.0.0.255. The class D IP addresses
available for general use are 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255.
In addition, IP multicasting distributes information to multicast
groups in two specific ways:
■
Multicast Forwarding - allows a switch to forward
multicast traffic from the local multicast server to group
members on directly attached subnetworks. If a multicast
packet is forwarded to multiple interfaces on one VLAN, only
one Forwarding Entry is added on the VLAN for the packet.
