Just logged in so don't know if this has been answered yet. The MAC address
for multicast is in fact 01:00:5e:xx:xx:xx where the low order 23 bits from
the class D ip address, for example, 224.0.0.5 (OSPF Hello packets) would
have a mac of 01:00:5e:00:00:05 as the multicast MAC address, the range for
multicasing is 01005e000000 through 01005e7fffff....Bobdu1

Fred,

I thought the mac addresses for multicast is 01-00-5e-xx-xx-xx. But
obviously it seems like I am wrong.
But Tariq's email and your response it seems like multicast mac addresses
mostly are

1) 01-00-xx-xx-xx-xx
2) but some protocols can also have first octet to be XXXXXXX1- and the
second octet to XXXXXXXX

Will you be kind enough to clarify this for me.

Tariq: feff will catch any odd number in the second nibble. There are
protocols that use multicast with an address other than 01 but they are
all odd.

Cheers, Fred
