摘要

Apparatus having corresponding methods and computer programs comprise: an input circuit adapted to receive a first packet of data, wherein the first packet has an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast destination address; a controller adapted to identify one or more wireless clients based on the IP multicast destination address and unicast media access control (MAC) addresses of the one or more wireless clients; a packet circuit adapted to generate one or more second packets of the data, wherein each of the second packets has one of the unicast MAC addresses as a MAC destination address; and a wireless output circuit adapted to wirelessly transmit the one or more second packets of the data.
