  2. IP multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_multicast

    Multicast uses network infrastructure efficiently by requiring the source to send a packet only once, even if it needs to be delivered to a large number of receivers. The nodes in the network (typically network switches and routers ) take care of replicating the packet to reach multiple receivers such that messages are sent over each link of ...

    Multicast uses network infrastructure efficiently by requiring the source to send a packet only once, even if it needs to be delivered to a large number of receivers. The nodes in the network take care of replicating the packet to reach multiple receivers only when necessary.

    The All Routers multicast group addresses all routers on the same network segment. No 224.0.0.4 This address is used in the Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) to address multicast routers. No 224.0.0.5 The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) All OSPF Routers address is used to send Hello packets to all OSPF routers on a network ...

    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. When a VTEP comes alive it uses the Internet Group Management Protocol to join the multicast groups for the VNIs it uses. When a VTEP has to send BUM traffic it will send ...

    Computed before sending, with this field set to zero. When re-computed on reception of the packet, this field is included, and the result should be zero. Group Address: 32 bits This is the multicast address being queried when sending a Group-Specific or Group-and-Source-Specific Query. The field is zeroed when sending a General Query. Reserved ...

  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. 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. The basic assumption behind dense mode is that the multicast packet stream has receivers at most locations. Sparse mode assumes relatively fewer receivers.

  9. Packet Sender - Wikipedia

    Packet Sender is an open source utility to allow sending and receiving TCP and UDP packets. It also supports TCP connections using SSL , intense traffic generation, HTTP(S) GET/POST requests, and panel generation.
