QuestionQ31

Multicast

What type of packets are transmitted from a single source-host address to a special group-based destination address?

Explanation

Multicast packets are sent by one source to a multicast group address, allowing all hosts that have joined that group to receive the traffic. Broadcast is not correct because it targets every host in a local broadcast domain rather than a defined receiver group.
