Detailed explanation-1: -When all devices need to receive the same message simultaneously, the message would be delivered as a broadcast. Unicast delivery occurs when one source host sends a message to one destination host. The sending of the same message from a host to a group of destination hosts is multicast delivery.
Detailed explanation-2: -Unicast is the term used to describe communication where a piece of information is sent from one point to another point. In this case there is just one sender, and one receiver.
Detailed explanation-3: -Unicast: from one source to one destination i.e. One-to-One. Broadcast: from one source to all possible destinations i.e. One-to-All. Multicast: from one source to multiple destinations stating an interest in receiving the traffic i.e. One-to-Many.
