All things related to multicast

[Ernie Gillis <>]

Apologies for the super basic question, but does my network need multicast enabled to watch the multicast stream?

My campus does not have it enabled, but I thought that was only meaning we couldn't output a multicast session. Not sure if this is why I cannot seem to access any of the streams to test.

Thanks!
