JNCIP-ENT: Juniper Networks Certified Professional – Enterprise Routing (2023) — Question 17

Which protocol is a multicast routing protocol?

Answer options

• A. OSPF
• B. BGP
• C. PIM
• D. IS-IS

Correct answer: C

Explanation

PIM (Protocol Independent Multicast) is specifically designed for multicast routing, making it the correct answer. OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) and IS-IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System) are primarily used for unicast routing, while BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is used for inter-domain routing, thus not suitable for multicast routing.
