Abstract :
We present an alternative design, Eff-MM (efficient mobile multicast). For efficiently supporting multicast for mobile hosts on the Internet. Providing multicast services to hosts has become popular and many multicast protocols have been proposed for mobile hosts. In the delivery tree problems occur whenever a member moves. Such problems are non-optimal delivery route and overheads caused by the frequent reconstruction of a multicast routing tree. To solve problems like this, the paper used the tunneling range and search method to routing paths around migration places with a simple message. The result provides the shortest routes for delivery of multicast datagrams to mobile hosts and reduces frequent reconstruction of the multicast tree reconfiguration
