Show AnswerHide Answer
Correct Answer: B
Based on the keepalive interval and retries configuration, if Switch-1 fails to receive keepalive messages from Switch-2 after two consecutive attempts, it will disable interface 1. The keepalive configuration is for monitoring the link state, and the switch will disable the interface to prevent potential issues such as loops in the network until the problem causing the failed keepalive packets is resolved.

Sep 22, 2020When a port is blocked by UDLD, the event is recorded in the switch log or via an SNMP trap (if configured); and other port blocking protocols, like spanning tree or meshing, will not use the bad link to load balance packets. The port will remain blocked until the link is unplugged, disabled, or fixed. The port can also be unblocked by disabling UDLD on the port.
