![]() ![]() If the content provider does not have its own assigned ASN, usually it can lease static GLOP addresses from their Internet Service Provider. Content providers who wish to transmit multicast traffic to their customers in the Internet and that have an assigned Autonomous System Number (ASN) can use multicast addresses from their block of 255 static GLOP addresses to transmit content. ![]() This allocation methodology, called GLOP addressing, which is defined in RFC 2770, uses the multicast group range of 233.0.0.0 through 233.255.255.255 (233/8) and provides each Autonomous System with a block of 255 statically assigned multicast addresses. This block of addresses has been assigned by the IANA as an experimental, statically assigned range of multicast addresses intended for use by Content Providers, ISPs, or anyone wishing to source content into the global Internet. Established by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to multicast audio and video meetings, Mbone is a collection of Internet routers that support IP multicasting on which various public and private audio and video programs are sent.
