Question 780

A preventive architecture review covers this situation: During a predeployment review for a financial trading campus, the team discovers this design gap: a financial multicast application has many active sources and receivers that must share identical data without unnecessary source-specific state in the core. An approval gate requires both a measurable acceptance check and a durable prevention control. Which preventive design control MOST DIRECTLY addresses this specific risk?

  1. Capacity-test multicast replication at distribution boundaries and avoid flooding uninterested segments.
  2. Test designated-forwarder election and RP failure behavior in the bidirectional domain. Apply the same control to the financial trading campus rollout checklist.
  3. Filter and monitor MSDP source-active advertisements to limit unintended sources.
  4. Audit group ranges, IGMP version and device support before converting ASM services to SSM.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Test designated-forwarder election and RP failure behavior in the bidirectional domain. Apply the same control to the financial trading campus rollout checklist. This control targets the underlying design risk. Bidirectional PIM supports shared-tree forwarding for many-to-many multicast without constructing individual source trees for every sender. The follow-up acceptance check remains: Multiple approved senders reach receivers over the intended shared tree at planned scale. The financial trading campus acceptance record also captures this result.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Multicast can replicate traffic within the network only where receivers need it, reducing redundant source-side transmissions. The repeat risk here is different: Bidirectional PIM supports shared-tree forwarding for many-to-many multicast without constructing individual source trees for every sender. A directly relevant preventive control is: Test designated-forwarder election and RP failure behavior in the bidirectional domain. Apply the same control to the financial trading campus rollout checklist.

C:

MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency. The repeat risk here is different: Bidirectional PIM supports shared-tree forwarding for many-to-many multicast without constructing individual source trees for every sender. A directly relevant preventive control is: Test designated-forwarder election and RP failure behavior in the bidirectional domain. Apply the same control to the financial trading campus rollout checklist.

D:

SSM identifies a desired source and group and generally does not rely on ASM RP source discovery. The repeat risk here is different: Bidirectional PIM supports shared-tree forwarding for many-to-many multicast without constructing individual source trees for every sender. A directly relevant preventive control is: Test designated-forwarder election and RP failure behavior in the bidirectional domain. Apply the same control to the financial trading campus rollout checklist.

Question 781

A new campus or WAN review presents this constraint: Two separately managed PIM sparse-mode domains must exchange active source information for ASM groups. Which action MOST DIRECTLY meets the stated design requirement?

  1. Deliver a supported multicast stream with correct routing and group membership where network and applications permit it.
  2. Enable compatible source-specific host signaling or redesign the group strategy rather than expecting IGMPv2 to signal source selection.
  3. Provide available or redundant network-service endpoints reachable from the disaster-recovery failure domain.
  4. Evaluate MSDP peering between the appropriate RP domains where legacy ASM interdomain source discovery is required.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Evaluate MSDP peering between the appropriate RP domains where legacy ASM interdomain source discovery is required. This action addresses the stated design problem. MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency. A practical confirmation is: An eligible source announced in one domain becomes discoverable and reachable to receivers in the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Multicast can replicate traffic within the network only where receivers need it, reducing redundant source-side transmissions. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency. The needed response is: Evaluate MSDP peering between the appropriate RP domains where legacy ASM interdomain source discovery is required.

B:

SSM receivers normally signal a particular source/group using IGMPv3 or an equivalent mechanism. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency. The needed response is: Evaluate MSDP peering between the appropriate RP domains where legacy ASM interdomain source discovery is required.

C:

Shared management and infrastructure services become dependencies that can undermine an otherwise redundant routed network. The actual fault is governed by a different mechanism: MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency. The needed response is: Evaluate MSDP peering between the appropriate RP domains where legacy ASM interdomain source discovery is required.

Question 782

For this Cisco ENSLD design case: Two separately managed PIM sparse-mode domains must exchange active source information for ASM groups. Which technical principle BEST explains the design decision?

  1. MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency.
  2. Multicast can replicate traffic within the network only where receivers need it, reducing redundant source-side transmissions.

Question 783

During acceptance testing for this network design: Two separately managed PIM sparse-mode domains must exchange active source information for ASM groups. Which acceptance observation BEST establishes the intended result?

  1. Multiple approved senders reach receivers over the intended shared tree at planned scale.
  2. An eligible source announced in one domain becomes discoverable and reachable to receivers in the other.
  3. Receivers join only the expected (source,group) stream and unwanted sources do not appear.
  4. Peak-period loss, queue occupancy and jitter meet requirements after the policy change.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

An eligible source announced in one domain becomes discoverable and reachable to receivers in the other. MSDP can advertise active sources between participating RPs in ASM deployments; it is not an SSM dependency.
