IPv6 multicast: [41] The low 32 bits an Ethernet address for IPv6 multicast traffic are the low 32 bits of the multicast IPv6 address used. [ 40 ] : §2.3.1 For example, IPv6 multicast traffic using the address ff02::d uses the MAC address 33-33-00-00-00-0D , and traffic to ff05::1:3 goes to the MAC address 33-33-00-01-00-03 .
The solicited-node multicast addresses are generated from the host's IPv6 unicast or anycast address, and each interface must have a solicited-node multicast address associated with it. A solicited-node address is created by taking the least-significant 24 bits of a unicast or anycast address and appending them to the prefix ff02::1:ff00:0 / 104 .
In IPv4, the multicast address is 239.255.255.250 [5] and SSDP over IPv6 uses the address set ff0x::c for all scope ranges indicated by x. [6] This results in the following well-known practical multicast addresses for SSDP: 239.255.255.250 (IPv4 site-local address) ff02::c (IPv6 link-local) ff05::c (IPv6 site-local)
Multicast. The service range address type also doubles as multicast address. When an application specifies a service range as destination address, a copy of the message is sent to all matching sockets in the cluster. Any socket bound to a matching service instance inside the indicated multicast range will receive one copy of the message.

Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP (MBGP or MP-BGP), sometimes referred to as Multiprotocol BGP or Multicast BGP and defined in IETF RFC 4760, [1] is an extension to Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) that allows different types of addresses (known as address families) to be distributed in parallel.
In computer networking, multicast is a type of group communication where data transmission is addressed to a group of destination computers simultaneously. [1] Multicast can be one-to-many or many-to-many distribution. [2] [3] Multicast differs from physical layer point-to-multipoint communication.
IP multicast is a method of sending Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams to a group of interested receivers in a single transmission. It is the IP-specific form of multicast and is used for streaming media and other network applications. It uses specially reserved multicast address blocks in IPv4 and IPv6.
