IP Multicast

An ISP engineer is troubleshooting an interdomain multicast deployment. A receiver in AS 65001 wants to receive a stream sourced in AS 65002. The RP in AS 65001 has no (S,G) state for the source, and the RP in AS 65002 is not sending any Source-Active messages. Both RPs are configured as MSDP peers over a working TCP session. Which statement explains why the RP in AS 65001 lacks source information?

You administer a Junos router that has two equal-cost paths toward the PIM rendezvous point for group 239.1.1.1.

Which TWO statements describe the function and operation of a PIM Bootstrap Router (BSR)? (Choose two)

An administrator is enabling PIM sparse-mode on a Junos router that connects to a Layer 2 switch carrying several user VLANs.

Which action is required on the router to receive IGMP reports?

An administrator is troubleshooting an MSDP deployment between two autonomous systems. Which THREE factors can cause an MSDP peer session to fail to establish? (Choose three)

A Junos router is the last-hop router for receivers in VLAN 100. The receivers use IGMPv3 and request group 239.5.5.5 from source 10.10.10.10 only. The router has a PIM sparse-mode shared tree (*,G) toward the RP, but traffic from 10.10.10.10 is not being delivered to the receivers. The unicast route to 10.10.10.10 points out a different interface than the one toward the RP. Which action resolves the problem?

An engineer needs to verify the Rendezvous Point (RP) currently learned via the Bootstrap Router (BSR) mechanism on a Junos device. Which operational command should be used?

A Junos router connects to a Layer 2 switch that has multiple receivers on VLAN 200. The switch is not running PIM, and the router is the only multicast router on the segment. You want the router to send IGMP general queries on the VLAN 200 interface and track receiver group memberships. Which configuration is required?

An administrator is configuring IGMP snooping on an EX Series switch. Which TWO benefits does IGMP snooping provide in a switched Ethernet environment? (Choose two)

A network administrator is configuring an enterprise router to join the Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) range. According to RFC standards, what is the standard IPv4 address block reserved for SSM?

An engineer is deploying PIM sparse-mode with anycast RP using two Junos routers that share the loopback address 10.0.0.1/32. Both routers are configured as static RPs for all groups and as MSDP peers with each other using their unique loopback addresses. Receivers attached to Router A join a group whose source is registered with Router B. Traffic initially flows, but after Router B reloads, receivers lose the stream even though Router A still has the anycast RP address reachable. Which mechanism is responsible for restoring source information to Router A?

An engineer wants to configure a Junos router to act as a Bootstrap Router (BSR) for PIM sparse-mode. Which configuration hierarchy is used to enable the BSR function?

Which IPv4 multicast address range is designated for Source-Specific Multicast (SSM) operations according to IANA standards?

An enterprise design uses PIM sparse-mode with a BSR. An engineer notices that the router has successfully elected a BSR, but no Candidate-RP messages are being processed. Which operational command should the engineer use to verify the BSR candidate information and elected BSR address on the router?

An administrator wants to configure an MSDP peer relationship on a Junos device and ensure that the MD5 password authentication is applied to the TCP session. Where is the MD5 authentication key configured for an MSDP peer?

An engineer is troubleshooting a multicast forwarding issue where data from a specific source is not reaching receivers in a remote PIM sparse-mode domain. Which THREE operational commands and diagnostic steps should be used to verify the multicast forwarding state and RPF path on a Junos router? (Choose three)

Which TWO statements are correct regarding IGMP version 2 (IGMPv2) features compared to IGMPv1? (Choose two)

An enterprise network uses MBGP (Multicast BGP) alongside PIM sparse-mode. Which THREE statements accurately describe the function of MBGP in a multicast environment? (Choose three)

An engineer needs to view the MSDP Source-Active (SA) cache on a Junos router to verify which sources are currently active across different PIM domains. Which operational command should be executed?

An enterprise network uses multiple routing instances with PIM sparse-mode. An engineer needs to configure Inter-AS multicast routing using MSDP. Which component is required to establish MSDP peering across different autonomous systems where BGP is also running?

An enterprise network runs PIM sparse-mode with a static RP configured on all routers. Users on a VLAN report that they can receive multicast streams from external sources, but the internal server 10.10.5.20 streaming to group 239.1.1.1 was just migrated to a new subnet. After the migration, receivers on a different VLAN stop receiving the stream, even though the new subnet is reachable and PIM is enabled on all interfaces. Which configuration element is most likely missing?
