Refer to the exhibit.
An administrator created a backplane stack with the plug-and-play method, and did not alter the default backplane stacking settings. Later, two backplane stacking links failed, as shown in the exhibit.
What happens to the backplane stack after the failures?
When a backplane stack experiences failures that divide it into fragments, by default, the smallest fragment becomes inactive. In this scenario, if no other specific configurations like OOBM (Out-of-Band Management) are applied, the fragment containing the commander will remain active, and the fragment with the standby member will be disabled. This ensures that there is no ambiguity in command and control within the network stack.
Correct answer is A. If a link or a switch failure occurs, separating a stack into two groups, the smaller group, or fragment, becomes inactive by default
CAUTION: This only occurs when OOBM is enabled and configured for all members of the stack. If OOBM is not enabled and configured for all members of the stack, then each fragment will be Active. See OOBM and active and inactive fragments for more information.
sorry,If the two resulting fragments are the same size.So,Correct answer is A.
Correct answer is D. Both remain as commander.
A is the good one.
Correct answer is A. Default settings mean the smallest fragment will be inactive.
