Performance Analysis of IP Multicast over ATM

IP MCOA 성능 분석

Multicasting is the delivery of a packet simultaneously to one or more destinations using a single, local transmit operation. Typically the set of destinations is referred to as a multicast group. sources transmit to these group addresses without knowing the group's actual membership. We have studied an implementation of one model of supporting IP multicast over ATM, the Multicast over ATM model developed by the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force). MCOA(Multicast over ATM) that includes both these modes of operation and the behavior of each in a testbed where the ATM host were connected in a WAN and LAN. WAN topology was to gain insight into the effects of larger propagation delays on the MC over ATM model.
