Huawei H12-821 Practice Test 42
Question 410
An operations change board examines an unsafe shortcut for this incident. After an access VLAN removes its last receiver, operations sees multicast continue briefly and needs to interpret prune and refresh behavior. Which proposed assumption is MOST DIRECTLY dangerous or unsupported? Select ONE best answer.
- Remove all rendezvous-point configuration from an ASM sparse-mode deployment and assume that every receiver automatically knows each source location.
- Assume that configuring a multicast source anywhere in the network automatically populates IGMP membership on a VLAN where no receiver has joined.
- Attempt to manipulate a remote ISP's outbound path by expecting an internal LOCAL_PREF value to be automatically carried over eBGP advertisements.
- Assume PIM-DM always requires a rendezvous point and never initially floods multicast packets to uninterested downstream segments.
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:It conflicts with: PIM-DM generally follows a flood-and-prune model, building source-based multicast distribution where an interface without interested downstream receivers can be pruned to reduce unnecessary traffic.
Incorrect Answers
A:This option proposes: Remove all rendezvous-point configuration from an ASM sparse-mode deployment and assume that every receiver automatically knows each source location. It addresses the different topic PIM sparse mode RP shared tree and shortest path transition, not the directly tested PIM dense mode flooding and prune mechanisms failure in the stated incident (After an access VLAN removes its last receiver, operations sees multicast continue briefly and needs to interpret prune and refresh behavior.).
B:This option proposes: Assume that configuring a multicast source anywhere in the network automatically populates IGMP membership on a VLAN where no receiver has joined. It addresses the different topic IGMP querier membership reports and group timeout, not the directly tested PIM dense mode flooding and prune mechanisms failure in the stated incident (After an access VLAN removes its last receiver, operations sees multicast continue briefly and needs to interpret prune and refresh behavior.).
C:This option proposes: Attempt to manipulate a remote ISP's outbound path by expecting an internal LOCAL_PREF value to be automatically carried over eBGP advertisements. It addresses the different topic BGP LOCAL_PREF within one autonomous system, not the directly tested PIM dense mode flooding and prune mechanisms failure in the stated incident (After an access VLAN removes its last receiver, operations sees multicast continue briefly and needs to interpret prune and refresh behavior.).
Question 411
A Huawei HCIP-Datacom engineer investigates the following network fault: A regional site can reach multicast source addresses by unicast but its IPTV stream never starts because the PIM-SM RP mapping is inconsistent. Which corrective action should be prioritized on the stated facts? Select ONE best answer.
- Diagnose outbound path choice across iBGP speakers using locally distributed LOCAL_PREF values.
- Trace PIM-SM receiver joins toward an RP and subsequent shortest-path behavior when investigating delayed or suboptimal multicast.
- Separate any-source group subscriptions from IGMPv3 source-specific multicast membership when implementing an SSM service.
- Explain how PIM dense mode initially distributes traffic and then prunes interfaces lacking downstream receivers.
Explanation
Correct Answer
B:The case-specific corrective step is: Trace PIM-SM receiver joins toward an RP and subsequent shortest-path behavior when investigating delayed or suboptimal multicast. The governing technical behavior is: In any-source PIM-SM an RP supports initial shared-tree joining and source registration, while routers may switch to source-rooted shortest-path trees according to configured behavior and traffic.

Question 412
An enterprise networking reviewer examines this Huawei Datacom situation. A regional site can reach multicast source addresses by unicast but its IPTV stream never starts because the PIM-SM RP mapping is inconsistent. A colleague proposes this action: Trace PIM-SM receiver joins toward an RP and subsequent shortest-path behavior when investigating delayed or suboptimal multicast. Which protocol principle BEST supports that proposal? Select ONE best answer.
- PIM-DM generally follows a flood-and-prune model, building source-based multicast distribution where an interface without interested downstream receivers can be pruned to reduce unnecessary traffic.
- IGMP reports express receiver interest in multicast groups and a querier maintains group membership state; without appropriate reports or queries a router can age out forwarding toward a segment.
- In any-source PIM-SM an RP supports initial shared-tree joining and source registration, while routers may switch to source-rooted shortest-path trees according to configured behavior and traffic.
- Routing protocols and static configuration contribute candidate routes to the routing information base, while the forwarding information base contains resolved next-hop and interface data used to forward packets.
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:The relevant protocol behavior is: In any-source PIM-SM an RP supports initial shared-tree joining and source registration, while routers may switch to source-rooted shortest-path trees according to configured behavior and traffic. In the stated scenario (A regional site can reach multicast source addresses by unicast but its IPTV stream never starts because the PIM-SM RP mapping is inconsistent.) this supports the controlled action: Trace PIM-SM receiver joins toward an RP and subsequent shortest-path behavior when investigating delayed or suboptimal multicast.
