Class D address range
232.0.0.0 to 232.255.255.255
239.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255
As specified by IANA, the IP addresses ranging from 224.0.0.0 to 224.0.0.255 are reserved for network
protocols on local networks. The following table lists commonly used reserved IP multicast addresses:

Like having reserved the private network segment 10.0.0.0/8 for unicast, IANA has also reserved the
network segment 239.0.0.0/8 for multicast. These are administratively scoped addresses. With the
administratively scoped addresses, you can define the range of multicast domains flexibly to isolate IP
addresses between different multicast domains, so that the same multicast address can be used in
different multicast domains without causing collisions.
