  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. 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.

  4. Broadcasting (networking) - Wikipedia

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

    In computer networking, telecommunication and information theory, broadcasting is a method of transferring a message to all recipients simultaneously. Broadcasting can be performed as a high-level operation in a program, for example, broadcasting in Message Passing Interface, or it may be a low-level networking operation, for example broadcasting on Ethernet.

  5. Multicast address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_address

    A multicast address is a logical identifier for a group of hosts in a computer network that are available to process datagrams or frames intended to be multicast for a designated network service. Multicast addressing can be used in the link layer (layer 2 in the OSI model ), such as Ethernet multicast, and at the internet layer (layer 3 for OSI ...

  6. Multicast routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_routing

    It is Core-Based Tree, selecting one router in the network as the root and transmitting information through the root router. Maximum delay in the tree is longer than SBT(Source-based tree), The core router manages all the information, and the remaining routers manage the direction of the core and the multicast information requested by the current neighboring router. it has a Good Scalability ...

  7. IP multicast - Wikipedia

    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. Reliable multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reliable_multicast

    Multicast is a network addressing method for the delivery of information to a group of destinations simultaneously using the most efficient strategy to deliver the messages over each link of the network only once, creating copies only when the links to the multiple destinations split (typically network switches and routers).

  9. Protocol-Independent Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol-Independent_Multicast

    PIM Source-Specific Multicast (PIM-SSM) builds trees that are rooted in just one source, offering a more secure and scalable model for a limited number of applications (mostly broadcasting of content). In SSM, an IP datagram is transmitted by a source S to an SSM destination address G, and receivers can receive this datagram by subscribing to ...
