EMR-300/2: Extreme Multicast Routing
Course Description
The Extreme Multicast Routing course presents the concepts
and techniques used with IP multicasting in a switched
Ethernet and routed IP environment. Implementation and
configuration of the Internet Group Management Protocol,
Protocol Independent Multicast-Sparse Mode, Protocol
Independent Multicast-Dense Mode, and additional multicast
related protocols are discussed. This course is based
on ExtremeWare® XOS™ 11.3.
This course is designed as an instructor-led lecture
with extensive laboratory exercises.
Intended Audience
This course is designed for individuals who are responsible
for the design, configuration and troubleshooting of
IP Multicast networks that incorporate Extreme Networks
products.
Prerequisite Skills
A working familiarity with LAN concepts, including basic
Ethernet and TCP/IP is required. Also a basic knowledge
of ExtremeWare XOS configuration and troubleshooting
techniques is needed. These prerequisites can be met
by attending the Extreme Configuration Fundamentals
(ECF-200/5) classes.
