Most routers integrate multicast functions required by multicasting (fact deliberately ignored by some network administrators whose don't want to know)
Reliable multicast data transmission is required
S. Paul (1998)
Multicasting on the Internet and its Applications
Many applications could benefit from multicasting. Slowly the Mbone is spreading: -through tunneling between multicast islands into a unicast sea
Many operating systems integrate multicast IP driver (fact unknown of users)
[Consider a telecommunications network consisting of a set of nodes connected by arcs. The network might be, e.g., the Internet, or the private network offered by a service provider such as AT&T. A node represents a physical device, such as a switch or router, connected to other devices. The term switch is typically used to refer to a device performing layer 2 data link functionality (e.g., Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) or Frame Relay) in the OSI model [102], while a router performs layer 3 network functionality in the OSI model. For brevity, by node we mean either a switch or a router. An arc represents a communications pathway, such as a fiber optic cable or a radio (wireless) link.]
