The multicast in IP networks allows us to avoid the use of several point-to-point connections (unicast) very expensive in network resources. It strongly improves management of the group communications and the band-width. Many developed multicast services constitute undeniable prooves of its massive use in the current Internet. However if this technique of transmissions seems to be under controlled in fixed IP environments, it is not the same situation in an environment in which the transmitter or the receiver is supposed to move from a network to an other. At the moment, that situation constitutes one of the transmissions problematic around which many proposals have been made in general as far as Mobile IPv6 is concerned. In this article, we describe the problems linked to the IPv6 multicast mobility and the existing proposals for their resolution. Then we will propose an architecture aiming to satisfy and optimize these transmissions in the specific case of a mobile multicast receiver in NC-HMIPv6 environment.
