This document recommends deprecation of the use of Any-Source Multicast (ASM) for interdomain multicast. It recommends the use of Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) for interdomain multicast applications and recommends that hosts and routers in these deployments fully support SSM. The recommendations in this document do not preclude the continued use of ASM within a single organization or domain and are especially easy to adopt in existing deployments of intradomain ASM using PIM Sparse Mode (PIM-SM).

Seamless multicast handover in an NC-HMIPv6 environment
The multicast facilitates group communications in IP networks and largely improves the usage efficiency of the bandwidth. However if this transmission technology has reached a sufficient maturity in fixed networks, it results in many problems in an IP ...
Proposal for multicast transmissions in NC-HMIPv6 environment
CEA'08: Proceedings of the 2nd WSEAS International Conference on Computer Engineering and ApplicationsThe multicast in IP networks allows us to avoid the use of several point-to-point connections (unicast) very expensive in network resources. It strongly improves management of the group communications and the band-width. Many developed multicast ...
