章节摘录

　　Though its specification was published in 1989， IP multicasting， has seen somewhat limited use. A few routers that support multicasting have been available on the Internet， though this is slowly changing. Routers in the Internet tend to be replaced by multicast-capable ones only when a new routcr is required to replace an old one.　　In the meantime， researchers wanted a resource and testbed for testing multicastintng protocols and applications. They also wanted a way to enable thedeployment of multicast applications without having to wait for multicast-enabled devices to be installed through the Inrernet. This led to the develop-ment ofMbone， which supports routing multicast packets without disturbing or altering other Internet Traffic and has been in existence since 1992.　　……
