MCAST | Implementing Cisco Multicast
The Implementing Cisco Multicast (MCAST) v2.0 course teaches you the fundamentals of IP multicasting, including multicast applications, sources, receivers, group management, and IP multicast routing protocols such as Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) used within a single administrative domain. You will learn about issues in switched LAN environments and reliable IP multicasting, and technical solutions for simple deployments of IP multicast within a provider or customer network. The course reviews the configuration and troubleshooting guidelines for implementation of IP multicast on Cisco® routers. Labs offer hands-on experience to help you prepare to deploy IP multicast successfully
 
Objectives
After taking this course, you should be able to:
Describe IP multicast services
Identify IP multicast issues on a data link layer
Explain why Protocol Independent Multicast Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) is the most current scalable IP multicast routing protocol 
Describe Rendezvous Point (RP) distribution solutions
Recognize the drawbacks of the PIM-SM and describe two extensions to provide possible solutions
Explain basic concepts of Multiprotocol BGP (MP-BGP) and its use in the IP multicast environment
Configure and deploy Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) in the interdomain environment
Describe solutions to mitigate security issues in the IP multicast network
Describe the process of monitoring and maintaining multicast high-availability operations
Design multicast-related application and network solutions in customer and service provider network
