This document defines the "administratively scoped IPv4 multicast
space" to be the range 239.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. In addition, it
describes a simple set of semantics for the implementation of
Administratively Scoped IP Multicast. Finally, it provides a mapping
between the IPv6 multicast address classes [RFC1884] and IPv4
multicast address classes.
