Which of the following is a typical use case for SSM over ASM?

Applications that require a Rendezvous Point for source discovery

Applications where multiple sources are allowed to send to the same group

Applications that need to support anonymous sources

Applications where the receiver knows the source address in advance

What is the significance of the 224.0.0.0/4 address range in the context of multicast?

It is the range reserved for SSM only

It is the range used for link-local multicast only

It is the entire IPv4 multicast address space, which includes both ASM and SSM ranges

It is the range reserved for ASM only

A service provider is running PIM-SM for ASM and wants to add SSM support. The provider has receivers that support IGMPv3. What must be configured on the routers to support SSM?

Enable IGMPv2 on the receiver-facing interfaces

Enable PIM-SSM for the 232.0.0.0/8 range

Configure a new RP for the SSM range

A service provider is running PIM-SM for ASM. A new application requires SSM. The provider wants to enable PIM-SSM on the existing routers. What must be configured to ensure SSM groups are handled correctly?

Disable PIM-SM and use PIM dense mode for all groups

Configure a single RP for both ASM and SSM groups

Enable PIM-SSM for all multicast groups

Configure PIM-SSM for the 232.0.0.0/8 range and leave PIM-SM for other ranges

How does IGMPv3 enable source-specific joins in SSM?

By using a multicast address that includes the source address

By allowing hosts to include the source address in their membership reports

By using a separate protocol to discover sources

By sending join messages to the Rendezvous Point
