Multicast

• Multicast services allow arbitrarily sized groups to communicate on a network via a single transmission by the source.Don't disturb (or less) non player computers (even if the network is still as busy !)

• Possibility of AOIM : Aera Of Interest Management

• Eg. : Geometric partition of the Net-VE, with each region being assigned a multicast address
