Communication mode#
Communication modes are fundamental to how devices interact and share data within a network environment. These modes determine the rules, protocols and mechanisms governing data transfer.
Unicast communication involves sending data from one source to one specific destination device. It is a one-to-one communication mode.
Multicast communication involves sending data to specific group (group of devices, multicast group). Only devices that have joined the multicast group can receive the data.
