Today I am taking a look at the weird world of multicast, where packets get delivered more than once, and we route using a backwards routing table. But, once you understand how it works, a whole world of content distribution possibilities open up to you! Inspired by an old video by @TallPaulTech, I’m using live TV distribution as an example of how multicast works, and how it can potentially be a massive upgrade to your network in oddly niche use cases.
