 Static ingress replication is a method used in VXLAN environments where the replication of multicast, broadcast, and unknown unicast traffic is manually defined. In the context of Cisco Data Center Core Technologies, Option A implements static ingress replication by explicitly specifying peers for replication using the ingress-replication protocol static command followed by the peer-ip command to define the IP address of the replication peer. This configuration is necessary when multicast routing is not an option in the underlay network.

References := For further details, one would typically refer to Cisco’s official documentation on VXLAN configurations and the Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) study materials, which provide in-depth explanations on the setup and management of network overlays including static ingress replication.

The statement that is true about the impact of a rolling EPLD upgrade on a Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switch is that only the modules that are being upgraded are disrupted. A rolling EPLD upgrade is a type of EPLD upgrade that allows the user to upgrade one or more modules in a switch without affecting the rest of the modules. The rolling EPLD upgrade requires a module reload for each module that is being upgraded, which causes a temporary disruption of traffic and services on that module. However, the other modules in the switch continue to operate normally and do not require a reload. The other statements are not true because:

• All modules on the switch are not disrupted. As explained above, only the modules that are being upgraded are disrupted, while the other modules are unaffected by the rolling EPLD upgrade.
• An EPLD upgrade is not nondisruptive. An EPLD upgrade is a process that updates the firmware of the electrical programmable logic devices (EPLDs) that provide hardware functionalities in the switch modules. An EPLD upgrade always involves a module reload, which causes a disruption of traffic and services on that module. However, the disruption can be minimized by using the hitless or non-disruptive EPLD upgrade modes, which preserve the forwarding state and configuration of the module during the reload.
• The upgrade cannot be performed from the standby supervisor module. The EPLD upgrade process requires the supervisor module to be in active mode before it can be upgraded. The standby supervisor module must be switched to active mode manually or automatically before the upgrade can begin. References: For more information on how to perform a rolling EPLD upgrade on a Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switch, please refer to the following resources:

 The configuration that meets the requirements for a media server to distribute streaming videos only to requesting clients, without propagating the video feed through shared trees if there are no requests, and supporting automatic discovery and announcement of RP-set information, is Option C. This option likely includes the use of Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) in sparse mode, which is suitable for environments where multiple routers need to dynamically discover the Rendezvous Point (RP) for multicast groups. The configuration would also involve commands to enable Auto-RP for the automatic announcement and discovery of RPs.

References: The explanation is based on the principles of multicast routing and PIM operation as described in Cisco Data Center Core Technologies documentation. For more detailed information, the “Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR v1.2)” course material and the Cisco official documentation on multicast routing would be the appropriate references.
