  2. Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast

    Broadcast: Broadcast communication involves sending data from one source to all devices within the network's range. In this case, every device receives the same data, regardless of whether it is requested. Examples of broadcast communication include certain emergency alerts and some radio communications.

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

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

    One of the data link layer over network layer (or Layer-2 over UDP) protocols adopted by the industry is VXLAN. Now, as with any other overlay network protocol, its scalability is tied into how well it can handle the Broadcast, Unknown unicast and Multicast (BUM). [14] In Data Plane Learning the broadcast traffic is flooded to multicast group ...

  4. Broadcasting (networking) - Wikipedia

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

    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. All-to-all communication is a computer communication method in which each sender transmits messages to all receivers within a group. [1]

  5. IP multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_multicast

    IP multicast is a technique for one-to-many and many-to-many real-time communication over an IP infrastructure in a network. It scales to a larger receiver population by requiring neither prior knowledge of a receiver's identity nor prior knowledge of the number of receivers.

  6. 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 ...

  7. Packet forwarding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_forwarding

    In practice, broadcast packets are not forwarded everywhere on a network, but only to devices within a broadcast domain, making broadcast a relative term. Less common than broadcasting, but perhaps of greater utility and theoretical significance, is multicasting , where a packet is selectively duplicated and copies delivered to each of a set of ...

  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. 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 ...
