12. Multicast Overview In the network packets are sent in three modes unicast broadcast and multicast In unicast the source server sends separate copy information to each receiver When a large number of users require this information the server must send many pieces of information with the same content to the users Therefore large bandwidth will be occupied In broadcast the system transmits information to all users in a network Any user in the network can receive the information no matter the information is needed or not Point to multipoint multimedia business such as video conferences and VoD video on demand plays an important part in the information transmission field Suppose a point to multi point service is required unicast is suitable for networks with sparsely users whereas broadcast is suitable for networks with densely distributed users When the number of users requiring this information is not certain unicast and broadcast deliver a low efficiency Multicast solves this problem It can deliver a high efficiency to send data in the point to multi point service which can save large bandwidth and reduce the network load In multicast the packets are transmitted in the following way as shown in Figure 8 1 Multicast Source Multicast Streams Router Switch 1 Switch 2 Switch 3 Receiver Receiver 2 Figure 8 1 Information transmission in the multicast mode PC Features of mul
