A service provider is implementing PIM sparse mode and wants to use BSR for RP discovery. They have two routers that could serve as the BSR, but they want to ensure that the router with the highest IP address wins the BSR election. What configuration is required?

Configure both routers as BSR candidates with the same priority.

Configure the router with the lower IP address with a higher priority.

Configure the router with the higher IP address as a mapping agent.

Configure only one router as a BSR candidate.

A network administrator is troubleshooting a BSR issue. They notice that routers are not learning the RP information. What should they check first?

That the RP is configured as a static RP.

That the mapping agent is configured.

That the multicast group is in dense mode.

That the BSR is reachable from all routers.

A network administrator is deploying PIM sparse mode. They have a source sending to group 239.1.1.1 and a receiver that wants to join the group. What is the role of the RP in this scenario?

The RP forwards all multicast traffic directly to the receiver.

The RP acts as the meeting point where the source and receiver can find each other.

The RP is responsible for electing the BSR.

The RP is the designated router for the source's LAN.

What is the primary purpose of verifying that all routers in a network agree on the RP address when using static RP?

To ensure that the RP is the highest IP address on the network

To verify that the RP is reachable via the loopback interface

To ensure that all routers use the same RP for the same group, avoiding black holes or loops

To prevent multicast traffic from being forwarded to the wrong destination
