Class D addresses are 32-bit network addresses, meaning that all the values within the range of 224.0.0.0 – 239.255.255.255 are used to uniquely identify multicastgroups. There are no host addresses within the Class D address space, since all the hosts within a group share the group's IP address for receiver purposes
