Multicast

IGMP [=Internet Group Management Protocol] Multicast enables communication between a
single sender and multiple receivers on a network. It is used when data needs to be sent from
one to many devices. Typical uses might include the updating of mobile personnel from a
home office or the periodic publishing of an online newsletter. Multicasting provides efficien-
cies which enable it to use less network bandwidth than the sending of the same data by other
means [e.g. SMTP].
To access Multicasting, click on Advanced>Advanced Features>Multicast.
To enable Multicast, open the multicast screen and select the Enable IGMP Multicast.
