224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. D class address can not appear in the source IP address field

of an IP message. In the process of Unicast data transmission, the transmission path of a data

packet is from source address routing to destination address, and the transmission is

performed with hop-by-hop principle. However, in IP Multicast environment, the destination

addresses is a group instead of a single one, they form a group address. All message

receivers will join in a group, and once they do, the data flowing to the group address will be

sent to the receivers immediately and all members in the group will receive the data packets.

The members in a Multicast group are dynamic, the hosts can join and leave the Multicast

group at any time.

Multicast group can be permanent or temporary. Some of the Multicast group addresses are

assigned officially; they are called Permanent Multicast Group. Permanent Multicast Group

keeps its IP address fixed but its member structure can vary within. The member amount of

Permanent Multicast Group can be arbitrary, even zero. The IP Multicast addresses which are

not kept for use by Permanent Multicast Group can be utilized by temporary Multicast groups.

224.0.0.0~224.0.0.255 are reserved Multicast addresses (Permanent Group Address),

address 224.0.0.0 is reserved but not assigned, and other addresses are used by Routing

Protocol; 224.0.1.0~238.255.255.255 are Multicast addresses available to users(Temporary

Group Address) and are valid in the entire domain of the network; 239.0.0.0~239.255.255.255

are local management Multicast addresses, which are valid only in specific local domain.

Frequently used reserved multicast address list is as follows:

Benchmark address (reserved)

224.0.0.1 Address of all hosts

224.0.0.2 Address of all Multicast Routers

224.0.0.3 Unassigned
