Ethernet multicast MAC addresses
When a unicast IP packet is transmitted over Ethernet, the destination MAC address is the MAC
address of the receiver. When a multicast packet is transmitted over Ethernet, however, the destination
address is a multicast MAC address because the packet is directed to a group formed by a number of
receivers, rather than to one specific receiver.
As defined by IANA, the high-order 24 bits of an IPv4 multicast MAC address are 0x01005E, bit 25 is 0,
and the low-order 23 bits are the low-order 23 bits of a multicast IPv4 address. The IPv4-to-MAC
mapping relation is shown in Figure 1-4 .
Figure 1-4 IPv4-to-MAC address mapping
The high-order four bits of a multicast IPv4 address are 1110, indicating that this address is a multicast
address, and only 23 bits of the remaining 28 bits are mapped to a MAC address, so five bits of the
multicast IPv4 address are lost. As a result, 32 multicast IPv4 addresses map to the same MAC address.
Therefore, in Layer 2 multicast forwarding, a device may receive some multicast data addressed for
other IPv4 multicast groups, and such redundant data needs to be filtered by the upper layer.
