A method for providing a multicast service for an MN includes: transmitting, by an MN connected to a first access point within a first access network, multicast information of the MN to an agent of the first access network through the first access point, wherein the multicast information includes information on a multicast source and a multicast group; transmitting and receiving messages between agents according to a predetermined protocol based on the multicast information of the MN transmitted to the agent of the first access network, and setting a multicast path between the multicast source and the MN of the first access network between the agents; transmitting, by the agent of the first access network, the multicast information of the MN to the MICS; and registering, by the MICS, the multicast information of the MN transmitted from the agent of the first network. |
