This document summarizes IPV4 multicast addressing and configuration. It outlines the common multicast address ranges including local network control, internetwork control, and source-specific multicast addresses. It also describes multicast terminology such as reverse path forwarding, IGMP, CGMP, PIM, shared and source-rooted distribution trees, and dense, sparse, and sparse-dense modes. Finally, it provides configuration examples and commands for configuring multicast routing, IGMP, PIM, RP discovery, and troubleshooting multicast.
