Background
Internet
Protocol (IP) multicast
is a bandwidth-conserving technology that reduces traffic by
simultaneously delivering a single stream of information to thousands of
corporate recipients and homes. Applications that take advantage of
multicast include IP live TV/Video streaming, VoIP, videoconferencing,
corporate communications, distance learning, and distribution of software,
stock quotes, and news etc.
What’s
IP Multicast
IP
Multicast is a form of network multipoint communications where a single
packet is sent to multiple recipients. In IP Multicast, the network
transmits packets only where necessary to reach each recipient. Only one
copy of a packet will traverse any one-network link - even when there are
multiple recipients on a particular network link.
