A data center runs PIM sparse-mode with a static RP. A new multicast group 239.5.5.5 is added, and receivers join the group. The RP is reachable, but the first-hop router does not create a multicast routing entry for the group. What is the most likely cause?

The receivers are not sending IGMP reports to the first-hop router.

The multicast source is not sending traffic yet.

The group 239.5.5.5 is not within the RP's configured group range.

PIM is not enabled on the receiver's access interface.

A network administrator is configuring PIM sparse-mode on a Dell OS10 switch that will act as the RP. The administrator wants to ensure that the RP is resilient and can continue to serve multicast groups if the primary RP fails. What should the administrator configure?

PIM dense-mode on the RP's interfaces.

Anycast-RP with the same IP address on multiple switches.

A higher DR priority on the RP's interfaces.

A secondary static RP on another switch with the same group range.
