Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCID) — Question 1

Which multicast rendezvous point redundancy mode is valid for Bidirectional PIM?

Answer options

• A. Embedded RP
• B. Phantom RP
• C. MSDP
• D. PIM anycast RP

Correct answer: D

Explanation

PIM anycast RP is the correct answer because it allows multiple routers to act as Rendezvous Points (RPs) with the same IP address, providing redundancy. The other options, such as Embedded RP and Phantom RP, are not applicable in the context of Bidirectional PIM, while MSDP is related to inter-domain multicast but does not provide redundancy for RPs in this scenario.
