Broadcast
Broadcast is defined as a type of transmission where data is transmitted from one source node to all other destination nodes. Broadcast transmission is a type of one to all communication approach. Broadcast transmission is used where all other present nodes need to see the data transmitted from the source. It is used in protocols such as Routing Information Protocol(RIP) and Address Resolution Protocol(ARP). There are two types of broadcast transmission networks.
Types of Broadcast Network
In a computer network, there are multiple devices known as nodes connected together. There are multiple ways through which we can transmit data between these connected nodes. Transmission can be one-to-one, one-to-many, or many-to-many. This transmission of data in the network is known as casting. Casting is of three types.
