What is a common mechanism to provide RP redundancy in PIM-SM?

Configuring multiple RPs for the same group and using a priority scheme to elect an active RP

Using MSDP to connect the RP to the source directly

Using IGMP snooping to replicate the RP function on switches

Disabling PIM on the RP to force traffic to use the source tree

What information is contained in an MSDP Source Active (SA) message?

The multicast group address and the source address of an active source

The RP's IP address and the TTL of the multicast packets

The list of all receivers in the local domain

The routing metrics to reach the source

In PIM sparse-mode, what is the role of the rendezvous point (RP)?

It is the router that performs IGMP snooping for the LAN

It is the router that directly connects to the multicast source

It acts as the root of the shared tree and a meeting point for sources and receivers

It is the router that provides DHCP services to multicast hosts

What is a primary benefit of using anycast RP in a PIM-SM network?

It eliminates the need for MSDP between domains

It simplifies configuration by using a single RP IP address on all routers

It provides redundancy and load balancing because multiple RPs are active simultaneously

It reduces multicast traffic by using a single shared tree

Part of the IP Multicast domain, which makes up ~8% of our current practice bank. Juniper Networks does not publish an official question count, but from its 90-minute exam (~35–60 total, ~3–5 in this domain), expect 1–2 from this objective — we provide 21 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
