Multicast is heavily used for applications such as stock trading and industrial networks. So it really depends... On Thu, Aug 9, 2018, 00:23 Justin M. Streiner <streinerj () gmail com> wrote:

And if multicast is removed, how much unicast traffic it would add up? * Since this forum has people from deployment area, I would love to know if there is real deployment problems or its pain to deploy multicast.These questions is to work / discussion in IETF to see what is pain points for multicast, and how can we simplify it.The amount of multicast traffic on an enterprise network will depend greatly on how multicast is being used, and to some extent, the type of business the enterprise is in. An enterprise that uses multicast primarily for IPTV distribution might have different business and technology drivers than, say, a hospital or healthcare organization that has patient monitors that use multicast to communicate back to a central monitoring station. The percentage of multicast traffic in those two scenarios might be vastly different, but no less important to their respective organizations. Thank you jms
