Configuring IP Multicasting and Multimedia Services

Multicast Host Groups
IP multicasting is a method for addressing, routing, and delivering a datagram to a
collection of receivers -- called a host group.
Host groups can be permanent or transient:
•A permanent host group has a well-known, administratively assigned IP
multicast group address. The address, not the membership, is permanent and
defines the group. A permanent host group can consist of zero or more
members.
•A transient host group exists only as long as it has members that need its
services. IP addresses in the multicast range that are not reserved for
permanent groups are available for dynamic assignment to transient host
groups.
An IP multicast host group can consist of zero or more members and places no
restrictions on its membership. Host members can reside anywhere; they can join
and leave the group at any time; and they can be members of more than one group
at the same time.
To receive a multicast message addressed to a multicast host group, a host must be
a member of the group and must reside on a network where that group is
registered with a local multicast router. However, any host system on any IP
network can send a message to a multicast group using the group’s IP multicast
address: a host does not need to be a member of a group to send a multicast
message to its members.
In general, hosts that are members of the same group reside on different networks.
However, a range of multicast addresses (224.0.0.x) is reserved for groups that are
locally scoped. All message traffic for these hosts remains on the local network.
Hosts that belong to a group in this address range and that reside in different
networks will not receive each other’s message traffic.
Note:
Multicast data packets are affected by traffic filters. Therefore, you must
ensure that traffic filters configured on a multicast router do not prevent a host
that is a member of a group from receiving packets intended for that group.
