Hi everyone,

i was reading about multicasting and it says when we do sh ip mroute command we will see

(source,group) so here source is user PC who wants to join the multicast group  and Group is Destination multicast address like 239.x.x.x right ??

Second thing i need to know is that if it says like (*,group) or (*,239.5.5.55  what does it mean ?

thanks

mahesh

Not quite - the (Source,Group) specifies the Source of the Multicast stream and
