Is it allowed to have a multicast MAC address linked to a unicast IP address? If not what standard specifies this?
I know that this mechanism is used for clustering but that certain vendors do not like it very much. I am interested in knowing what the rules are because up to now everybody just told me that it is a strange way to use multicast but some also said that it is illegal. Without proving it.
So let me know if you know about a standard specifying this.
Thanks. Mat
