ALCATEL-LUCENT SERVICE ROUTING CERTIFICATION PROGRAM

Alcatel-Lucent Multicast Protocols

Course Outline

This course provides in-depth training on IP Multicast including concepts, terminology, addressing, signaling protocols, design, and implementation considerations. Upon successful completion of the course students will be able to demonstrate a solid understanding of IP multicast theories and concepts; Describe the operation of a multicast enabled network; Describe the operation of Internet Group Management Protocol and Protocol (IGMPv2 and IGMP v3) and Independent Multicast (PIM); Describe the techniques used for providing resiliency in multicast networks; Implement IPv6 multicast using MLD, SSM, and ASM. The course includes hands-on lab exercises to help students understand how to configure and implement multicast in an Alcatel-Lucent Service Router network.

IP ROUTING CERTIFICATIONS

An exemption does not imply that a certification is awarded. To obtain an NRS I certification, you must write and pass the Alcatel-Lucent Scalable IP Networks (4A0-100) exam.

If you have already received knowledge certification by one of the organizations identified in the following table, and your certification is still valid, you may receive credit towards prerequisite IP Routing exams in the Alcatel-Lucent Service Routing Certification program. On validation, you will receive exemptions based on the certifications that you hold. For example, an individual who holds a valid and active CCIE will be exempted from exams 4A0-100, 4A0-101 and 4A0-102.

COURSE OBJECTIVES

After completing the course, students should be able to: Understand the need for multicasting and the types of multicast applications Differentiate between the methods of IP packet delivery and their characteristics Recognize the component protocols of a multicast enabled network Understand IP multicast addressing Understand the role of the interior gateway protocol (IGP) in a multicast-enabled network Describe the operation of Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMPv2 and IGMPv3) and IGMP snooping Configure and verify the operation of IGMP and identify its parameters Understand the issues and solutions of multicasting on Layer 2 and Layer 3 Demonstrate a sound understanding of protocol independent multicast sparse mode (PIM-SM) and protocol independent multicast source specific multicast (PIM-SSM) protocol behavior List the benefits of SM/SSM (Content control, Redundancy, Simplicity) Implement multicast using SSM and IGMPv2 Differentiate between shared- and source-based trees and their usage Successfully configure, monitor and troubleshoot a PIM-SM and PIM-SSM intra-domain multicast deployment using Alcatel-Lucent verification and debugging tools

Explain convergence in the multicast access and multicast core network Provide a scalable, redundant rendezvous point solution Describe the multicast routing policy and mCAC policy Describe the structure of IPv6 multicast address and identify its fields (flags, scope, group ID) Operate and configure Multicast Listener Discovery Protocol (MLD) Operate and configure PIM source-specific multicast (SSM) in the context of IPv6 Operate and configure PIM Any source multicast (ASM) in the context of IPv6 Describe the impact of IPv6 on RPs (embedded RP)
