Description
This course aims to provide a resource for network engineers to understand and deploy IP multicast technology for today's data centers and enterprise networks. And to help CCIE/CCNP Data Center certification candidates prepare well for their exams.It begins with an introduction to the basic concepts of multicast through the use of graphics and short explanations. It answers the question: What is multicast and why is it needed? The course then discusses Layer-2 (MAC) and Layer-3 (IP) multicast addressing. And shows how to map the IPv4 multicast address to the multicast MAC address.The course takes a deep dive into the multicast protocols, including the host-to-router signaling protocol i.e. IGMP, and the router-to-router control plane protocol i.e. PIM.After building the foundational knowledge, it covers more advanced topics such as dynamic RPs (Auto-RP & BSR), anycast RP (PIM anycast & MSDP), and bidirectional PIM (Bidir PIM).This learning material has been designed with a broad audience in mind while specifically targeting Cisco certification candidates, network architects, engineers, and operators. You do not have to be a networking professional or data center administrator to benefit from this course.This professional development and foundational learning course contain the following:High-quality, technical on-demand videos cover all essential multicast topics.Lab demos for a better explanation of all features learned in the course. Quizzes to confirm correct understanding.External resources to enrich your multicast knowledge.Packet captures and protocol message formats for detailed information.Downloadable PDF slides for configuration reference and knowledge review.
Who this course is for
Network engineers, designers, and consultants at all professional levels.
Candidates preparing for their CCIE Data Center v3.0 LAB or CCNP exams.
Candidates with basic networking knowledge who desire more expertise in multicast technology.
