Topology:
Use configuration from Multicast task #1 as initial configuration for this task.
Requirements:
1. Configure R3 to be the RP for multicast groups 228.0.0.0 - 227.255.255.255
2. Configure R4 to be the RP for multicast groups 229.0.0.0 - 228.255.255.255
3. Configure R5 to serve as backup RP for R3 and R4, in case either of those fails.
4. Configure R2 to be the RP for the remaining multicast groups.
5 . Use Cisco proprietary protocol to dynamically distribute RP information.
6. Do not remove configuration from previous task to complete the above requirements.
Solution:
Highlight the text below to reveal the solution.
This task requires understanding of RP information distribution protocols (Auto-RP vs BSR), and understanding of RP selection process (longest mask match, dynamic vs static).
Requirement #5 - Use Auto-RP to distribute the RP information. Configure any two routers as mapping agents (for redundancy).
Requirements #1, 2 - configure R3 and R4 to send Auto-RP announce for specified ranges.
Requirement #3 - configure R5 to send Auto-RP announce for range 228.0.0.0/7. R5 must announce the /7 range, otherwise it will be the RP, since it has a higher loopback0 address.
Requirement #4 - configure R2 to send Auto-RP without specifying the range. It will override previously configured static RP address.
Requirement #6 - since modifying previous configuration is not allowed, configure "ip pim autorp listener" on all IOS routers to allow Auto-RP to work across sparse-mode interfaces.
