Addressing:
  • The IP address space is divided into four pieces: Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D. Class D is reserved for multicast traffic. Class D addresses are allocated dynamically.
Dynamic Registration:
  • RFC 1112 defines the Internet Group Membership Protocol (IGMP). IGMP specifies how the host should inform the network that it is a member of a particular multicast group.
