Questions and Answers

Which statement best describes the purpose of Alternate (Blocked) Ports in Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)?

  • They are used to provide redundant paths in case the Root Port fails.
  • They are placed in a discarding or blocking state to prevent switching loops. (correct)
  • They are used to connect multiple switches in a hierarchical network topology.
  • They are used to forward traffic when the Root Port is congested.

    • What is the purpose of the Root Port in Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)?

  • It is the port that is closest to the root bridge in terms of overall cost. (correct)
  • It is the port that is farthest from the root bridge in terms of overall cost.
  • It is the port that is used to connect the switch to other non-root bridges.
  • It is the port that is used to connect the switch to the root bridge directly.

    • What is the purpose of an EtherChannel in computer networking?

  • It is a virtual interface that combines multiple physical interfaces into a single logical interface. (correct)
  • It is a protocol used to automatically assign IP addresses to devices on a network.
  • It is a type of network cable used to connect switches and routers.
  • It is a protocol used to prevent switching loops in a network.

    • What is the purpose of the PAgP 'on' mode in EtherChannel configuration?
