E seems plausible too, but I think we have enough info here.

Wait, I thought it only used the unicast table by default?

I disagree, A seems more accurate. It relies on the multicast table first.

I'm pretty sure the answer is B. PIM checks both tables.

I feel like I read that the RPF check can succeed even if the multicast table is empty, as long as the unicast table has the source. So, could it be option B?

I’m a bit confused about the RPF check requirements. I thought it needed the source in both tables, but I might be mixing it up with something else.

I remember practicing a similar question where it mentioned that PIM can refer to the unicast table if the multicast one doesn't have the entry. So maybe option B is correct?

I think the RPF check relies on the multicast forwarding table first, so if it's not there, it might fail. But I’m not completely sure.

Based on my understanding, the RPF check requires the source address to be present in both the unicast and multicast forwarding tables. So I think the answer is D - the RPF check will fail in this scenario.

I'm a bit confused. The question mentions the source address is available in the unicast forwarding table, but does that mean PIM will use that for the RPF check? I'm not sure.

I'm pretty confident the answer is B. PIM uses the multicast forwarding table first for the RPF check, and if the source isn't found there, it refers to the unicast forwarding table.

Okay, let's see. The question says the source address is in the unicast forwarding table but not the multicast forwarding table. I think that's the key detail here.

Hmm, this one seems tricky. I'll need to think carefully about the default RPF check behavior of the 7750 SR.

Option A is definitely a no-go. Emailing unsubscribed customers is just going to annoy them and could get the company in trouble. I'm leaning towards C, D, and E - those seem like the safest bets to grow the email list the right way.

The RPF check on the 7750 SR is like a game of hide-and-seek, but the source address is playing a sick prank and hiding in the wrong table!

B) The RPF check will not fail, as by default PIM uses the multicast forwarding table first for RPF check, if not found in the multicast forwarding table then refers to unicast forwarding table

Option B is the answer, no doubt. It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but the unicast table has your back!

I think the question is a bit tricky. The key point is that the source address is available in the unicast forwarding table, even though it's not in the multicast forwarding table. Option B is the way to go.

The correct answer is B. PIM uses the multicast forwarding table first for RPF check, and if the source address is not found, it refers to the unicast forwarding table. This is the default behavior of the 7750 SR.
