48. What does IGMPv2 add?
EBGP will only peer to direclty connected neighbors and a loopback is considered one hop away.<br /><br />With eBGP peering to a loopback you must enable eBGP Multihop.<br /><br />R1(config-router)# neighbor 192.168.1.1 ebgp-multihop 2 BGP
BPG will find an exact match. BGP
RFC 2236<br />Leave and join latency resolved<br />Group specific query to G instead of 224.0.0.1<br />Leave group message<br />Election of querier (lowest IP) on broadcast medium with multiple routers <br /> Multicast

49. Explain the Weight attribute.
224.0.0.1 - All systems<br />224.0.0.2 - All routers<br />224.0.0.4 - DVMRP routers<br />224.0.0.5 - All OSPF<br />224.0.0.6 - All OSPF DR<br />224.0.0.9 - RIP v2 routers<br />224.0.0.10 - EIGRP routers<br />224.0.0.13 - PIM routers<br />224.0.0.15 -
Loopback more resilient than physical interfaces. BGP
O<br />Cisco only.<br />Routes with higher weight are preferred (0 - 65535) . Paths that the router originates have 32768; other paths have default of 0.<br /> BGP
Members leave through attrition; no leave group message. This keep traffic flowing for a period of time even with no group members. Multicast
50. Within the layer 3 multicast address space - name 3 reserved scopes and their purpose.
