Short Take: Intel offers software distribution tools

Intel has released LANDesk Targeted Multicasting Software, a package of software distribution tools based on IP multicast technology. The software speeds up the distribution of software over a network while reducing bandwidth consumption and removing the need to reconfigure routers. Software distribution saves time and money by automating the delivery of new applications, software patches, virus pattern updates or other programs, and eliminating the need to physically visit each PC or server.
