Summary
| Description |
English: This is an edit of Anycast improved.svg, which was uploaded by FockeWulf FW 190, under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 license.
My reason for editing the file is that it depicts Anycast, somewhat incorrectly. Anycast is "one-to-one-of-many" routing. A packet is ultimately delivered to one destination, selected by the routing protocols as the best or nearest of several possible candidate destinations. The original image showed delivery to the three green nodes. This is wrong. I have changed the image to remove two of three arrows. Everything else is the same. The result is that the three green nodes represent the possible endpoints of the anycast transmission, but there is only one arrow, representing the single packet delivery to the one selected node.
