Class D is generally used for multicasting because it has all 32 bits as network bits and contains no host bits so it cannot be used for normal networking. Multicasting means communicating with a group of clients who are intended to receive the transmitted message. Edit:unicast is meant for a single recipient. Whereas broadcast is meant for everybody on the given network.

on any subnet, an address ending in 255 will be multicast. Just pay attention to the subnet mask. If it is not standard, the value of Multicast will be different. For example for adresses 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.3... etc. subnet mask 255.255.255.0 value multicast will be 192.168.0.255 and it does not depend on the class of the network
