  2. Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast

    In this case, data is broadcast to all receivers but only addressed to a specific group. The concept of interactive multicast, for example using IP multicast, may be used over TV broadcast networks to improve efficiency, offer more TV programs, or reduce the required spectrum. Interactive multicast implies that TV programs are sent only over ...

  3. Broadcasting (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcasting_(networking)

    However, multicasting limits the pool of receivers to those that join a specific multicast receiver group. Both Ethernet and IPv4 use an all-ones broadcast address to indicate a broadcast packet. Token Ring uses a special value in the IEEE 802.2 control field. Broadcasting may be abused to perform a type of DoS-attack known as a Smurf attack ...

  4. Multicast address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_address

    In support of link-local multicasts which do not use IGMP, any IPv4 multicast address that falls within the *.0.0.0 / 24 and *.128.0.0 / 24 ranges will be broadcast to all ports on many Ethernet switches, even if IGMP snooping is enabled, so addresses within these ranges should be avoided on Ethernet networks where the functionality of IGMP ...

  5. Digital multicast television network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_multicast...

    A digital multicast television network, also known as a diginet or multichannel, is a type of national television service designed to be broadcast terrestrially as a supplementary service to other stations on their digital subchannels. Made possible by the conversion from analog to digital television broadcasting, which left room for additional ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_multicast

    IP multicasting was first developed by Steve Deering while at Stanford University for which he received the IEEE Internet Award. [10] The MBONE was a long-running experimental approach to enabling multicast between sites through the use of tunnels. While the MBONE is no longer operational, there is renewed interest in tunneling multicast ...

  8. Digital subchannel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_subchannel

    Community television stations in Melbourne and Adelaide also broadcast digital signals, however they typically only broadcast a single SD subchannel which simulcasts that station's primary channel. There have been a number of issues surrounding the introduction of digital subchannels in Australia.

  9. Broadcast, unknown-unicast and multicast traffic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast,_unknown-unicast...

    Broadcast traffic is reduced and VXLAN tunnel endpoints (VTEPs) reply to the caller directly. VXLAN can handle BUM in two ways: Multicast and Head End Replication . Multicast is the most common approach, and each VXLAN network identifier (VNI) is mapped to a single multicast group, while each multicast group may map to one or more VNIs.
