ABSTRACT:
A method and system of implementing a multicast protocol in a data network capable of basic internet protocol data traffic which provides a medium for data transfer. By illustration the data network comprises a server system and a plurality of clients connected to the server by way of a common network. This method and system manages the assignment of multicast addresses for each client and places each client into specific multicast groups based upon their multicast addresses. This method and system is then able to transfer multicast packets to individual clients based upon their multicast addresses.
