Description
Implementing
Advanced Cisco® IP Multicast (MCAST) Version 2.0 provides students with
in-depth knowledge about the IP multicast building blocks that make
this IP service deployable. Bandwidth and processing power are wasted
when data is replicated and sent from a source to potential receivers
multiple times. With IP multicast and a sophisticated group of
protocols, information is delivered with minimal effects on bandwidth
and processor load. This IP service helps ensure simultaneous
information delivery only to the people and the machines that require
the information. Objectives
- Explain the benefits of multicasting
- List various types of multicast applications and their requirements
- Identify the addressing issues of IP multicasting
- Explain the way multicast applications work and identify the prerequisites that have to be fulfilled for an implementation
- Explain the principles and detailed operation of different Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) modes
- Describe the variants of PIM sparse mode (bidirectional PIM environments and Source Specific Multicast)
- Select multicast protocols for different environments
- Describe the deployment of multicast in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) environments
- Describe multicast deployment in Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) VPN environments
Prerequisites
- Completion of BSCI, Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks
Who Should Attend
The course is targeted at presales and
postsales technical support engineers who have to design and implement
IP multicast in their networks.
