Hi 

I still don´t understand it. I know that multicast address range is 224.0.0.0 - 
239.255.255.255

Just binary math my friend :-)
The last 3 octets are all 1, so match everything.
First octet:11100000 = 22400000111 = 7
Meaning that everything matches from 11100000 up to 11100111
11100111 = 231
Class D addresses reach from 224 to 239, so Class D is 16 subnets large. Half 
of 16 is 8 when matching 224 up to 231 you have your 8 subnets which is half of 
the multicast range :-)

Hi

On the detailed solution task 24.3, it says " Set R2 to advertise itself as as 
the RP for the first half of all groups"

My question is from where did you get the multicast 224.0.0.0 7.255.255.255 ?
