With a Multicast Design, Applications Can Send One Copy of Each

question 204

Multiple Choice

With a multicast design, applications can send one copy of each packet and address it to the group of computers that want to receive it. This technique addresses packets to a group of receivers rather than to a single receiver, and it depends on the network to forward the packets to only the networks that need to receive them. Which two of these are characteristics of multicast routing?

• A) multicast routing uses OSPF.
• B) multicast routing uses RPF.
• C) In multicast routing, the source of a packet is known.
• D) When network topologies change, multicast distribution trees are not rebuilt, but use the original path
