QUESTION=Once switches communicate to the root bridge, how is the root port of the bridge determined?
NAME_QUESTION=Once switches communicate to
RIGHT_ANSWER=2
ANSWER1=The switch determines the highest cost of a link to the root bridge.
ANSWER2=The switch determines the lowest cost of a link to the root bridge.
ANSWER3=By sending and receiving BPDUs between switches. The fastest BPDU transfer rate on an interface becomes the root port.
ANSWER4=The root bridge will broadcast the bridge ID, and the receiving bridge will determine what interface this broadcast was received on and make this interface the root port.
REACTION1=
REACTION2=Root ports are determined by using the cost of a link to the root bridge. The lowest cost wins. See Chapter 4 for more information.
