Junos Multicast Routing (JMR)

Length: Two days

Course Overview

This two-day course is designed to provide students with detailed coverage of multicast protocols including Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP), Protocol Independent Multicast-Dense Mode (PIM-DM), Protocol Independent Multicast-Sparse Mode (PIM-SM), and Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP). Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience in configuring and monitoring the Junos operating system and in monitoring device and protocol operations.

Objectives

After successfully completing this course, you should be able to:

• Describe IP multicast traffic flow.
• Identify the components of IP multicast.
• Explain how IP multicast addressing works.
• Describe the need for reverse path forwarding (RPF) in multicast.
• Explain the role of IGMP and describe the available IGMP versions.
• Configure and monitor IGMP.
• Identify common multicast routing protocols.
• Explain the differences between dense-mode and sparse-mode protocols.
• Describe rendezvous point (RP) discovery options.
• Configure and monitor PIM dense and sparse modes.
• Configure and monitor rendezvous point discovery mechanisms.
• Explain the purpose and operation of MSDP.
• Describe the usage of MSDP within a single PIM domain with Anycast RP.
• Describe the usage of MSDP across multiple PIM domains.
• Configure and monitor MSDP.
• Compare the any-source multicast (ASM) and source-specific multicast (SSM) service models.
• Describe the basic requirements, benefits, and caveats of SSM.
• List the address ranges used for SSM.
• Illustrate the role of IGMPv3 and PIM-SM in an SSM implementation.
• Configure and monitor SSM.
• Describe the default PIM sparse mode information distribution.
• Explain how routing policies alter PIM message traffic.
• Describe how MSDP advertises messages to established peers.
• Identify the role of a policy in controlling MSDP message advertisement.
• Explain how you can use a policy to scope multicast groups.

Target Audience

This course benefits individuals responsible for implementing, monitoring, and troubleshooting multicast components in a service provider's network.
