I thought multicast was for a specific group too, but I wonder if it could also refer to devices across different networks like option C suggests.

I feel like multicast is related to sending data to multiple devices, but I can't recall if it's all devices or just a specific group.

I remember practicing a question about multicast vs. broadcast addresses, and I think multicast is about targeting a group, so maybe it's B?

Okay, I think I've got this. The scope of protection includes the primary and standby OLTs, so I'll go with option A.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the relationships between the tables mentioned to figure out the right answer.
