  2. Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast

    Multicast: In multicast communication, data is sent from one source to multiple specific receivers, often to a defined group within a network. This is efficient in scenarios like live streaming, where the data is only sent once but received by multiple devices interested in the same content.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Protocol-Independent Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol-Independent_Multicast

    Dense mode multicast is one mode that multicast can use to construct a tree for sending packets to the multicast subscribers. It is an alternative to sparse mode. It is an alternative to sparse mode. The basic assumption behind dense mode is that the multicast packet stream has receivers at most locations.

  6. 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).

  7. 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 ...

  8. Multicast encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_encryption

    Multicast is what enables a node on a network to address one unit of data to a specific group of receivers. [1] In interactive multicast at the data link or network layer, such as IP multicast, Ethernet multicast or MBMS service over cellular network, receivers may join and leave the group using an interaction channel.

  9. NACK-Oriented Reliable Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NACK-Oriented_Reliable...

    The following architectural constructs are defined in RFC 5740 Section 2, Architecture Definition. [10]The NORM message is the fundamental NORM architectural construct. A NORM message is contained in the data field of a UDP datagram.
