Implementation of Multicast Routing on IPv4 and IPv6 Networks

Fast developing world of technology, multimedia applications are quickly growing their performance into the Internet and shared networks. Multicast routing protocols sprint over unicast routing protocols to endow with well-organized routing of such applications. This research paper intended to considerate how the transition from Internet Protocol version 4 to Internet Protocol version 6 would influence multicast routing. The multicast routing protocol was used over both Internet Protocol version 4 and Internet Protocol version 6 and a mixed Internet Protocol version 4 - Internet Protocol version 6. Netwok parameters such as overhead, throughput and jitter network are evaluated
