Author(s): T. Smith, G. Armitage.
Status: PROPOSED STANDARD
Date: Oct 1997
Length: 30661
This memo describes how the IP multicast service being developed by the IP over ATM working group may be used to support IP broadcast transmission. The solution revolves around treating the broadcast problem as a special case of multicast, where every host in the subnet or cluster is a member of the group.
An understanding of the services provided by RFC2022 is assumed.
