With the increasing popularity of multimedia services over IP network, multicast is

gaining its marketplace. In addition, the multicast service becomes popular and

prevalent gradually.

23.2 Implementation of IP Multicast

23.2.1 IP Multicast Addresses

In multicast mode, there are questions about where to send the information, how to

locate the destination or know the receiver. All these questions can be narrowed down

to multicast addressing. To guarantee the communication between a multicast source

and a multicast group (that is, a group of receivers), the network layer multicast

address (namely the IP multicast address) is required, along with the technique to

correlate it with the link layer MAC multicast address. Following is the introduction to

these two kinds of addresses.

I. IP Multicast Addresses

According to the definition in Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA), IP addresses

fall into four types: Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D. Unicast packets use IP

addresses of Class A, Class B or Class C, depending on specific packet scales.

Multicast packets use IP addresses of Class D as their destination addresses, but

Class D IP addresses cannot be contained in the source IP field of IP packets.

During unicast data transmission, a packet is transmitted "hop-by-hop" from the source

address to the destination address. However, in IP multicast environment, a packet has

more than one destination address, or a group of addresses. All the information

receivers are added to a group. Once a receiver joins the group, the data for this group

address starts flowing to this receiver. All members in the group can receive the

packets. This group is a multicast group.

Membership here is dynamic, and a host can join or leave the group at any time. A

multicast group can be permanent or temporary. Some multicast group addresses are

allocated by IANA, and the multicast group is called permanent multicast group. The IP

addresses of a permanent multicast group are unchangeable, but its membership is

changeable, and the number of members is arbitrary. It is quite possible for a

permanent group to not a single member. Those not reserved for permanent multicast

groups can be used by temporary multicast groups. Class D multicast addresses range

from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. More information is listed in Table 23-1 Ranges

and meanings of Class D addresses.
