Cisco IOS Secure Multicast

Overview Cisco IOS Secure Multicast is a set of hardware and software features necessary to secure IP Multicast group traffic originating on or flowing through a Cisco IOS device. It combines the keying protocol Group Domain Of Interpretation (GDOI) with hardware-based IP security (IPsec) encryption to provide users an efficient method to secure IP Multicast group traffic. With Cisco IOS Secure Multicast, a router can apply encryption to IP Multicast traffic without having to configure tunnels.
