Which configuration element is essential for Anycast RP on a Juniper device?

A loopback interface with the same IP address on all RPs

A unique IP address on each RP's loopback interface

A separate routing instance for each RP

A static route to the RP address on each router

Why is MSDP necessary in an Anycast RP design with PIM-SM?

Because each RP only knows about sources that register with it, and MSDP shares that information with other RPs

Because PIM-SM cannot forward multicast traffic without MSDP

Because MSDP provides a backup path for multicast data

Because MSDP is required to configure Anycast RP on Juniper devices

What is a common cause of RP reachability issues in an Anycast RP design?

PIM is not enabled on the RP's loopback interface

The RP address is not configured on any interface

The anycast RP address is not advertised into the IGP

A network administrator is configuring Anycast RP on a Juniper router. The router will be one of two RPs in the network. The administrator has created a loopback interface with the address 192.168.1.1/32 and assigned it to the `lo0` interface. What is the next step in the configuration process?

Add the loopback interface to a multicast routing instance.

Configure MSDP on the loopback interface using the anycast address.

Assign the loopback address to the `lo0` interface and configure it as a static route.

Enable PIM on the loopback interface and configure the loopback address as the RP address in the PIM configuration.

What is the primary function of MSDP in an Anycast RP environment?

To provide a backup path for multicast data traffic

To elect a single active RP among the Anycast RP set

To replace PIM-SM for multicast forwarding

To share information about active multicast sources between RPs

Anycast RP JN0-664 Practice Questions (Page 2)

Part of the IP Multicast domain, which makes up ~18% of our current practice bank. Juniper Networks does not publish an official question count, but from its 90-minute exam (~35–60 total, ~6–11 in this domain), expect 1–1 from this objective — we provide 17 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
