HPE6-A45 Exam - Question 90


Refer to the exhibits.

Exhibit 1 -

Exhibit 2 -

A network administrator sets up PIM-DM to route traffic from the multicast source to clients in VLAN 24. The server begins to forward multicasts, and the clients are set up to receive them. However, the multicasts do not reach the clients.

Based on the output, what should the administrator verify?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

The issue is that the multicast traffic is not reaching the clients in VLAN 24. Examining the provided output, Switch-1 has no multicast route entries, suggesting that the multicast traffic is not being routed from Switch-1 to the clients. This indicates that IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) and PIM-DM (Protocol Independent Multicast-Dense Mode) may not be properly configured or running on VLAN 24 of Switch-1. Without IGMP, Switch-1 cannot receive membership reports from the clients indicating their interest in the multicast traffic, and without PIM-DM, Switch-1 cannot forward the multicast traffic to the clients. Therefore, the administrator should verify that both IGMP and PIM-DM are enabled and running on VLAN 24 of Switch-1.
