HPE6-A45 Exam - Question 5

Refer to the exhibits.

Exhibit 1.

Exhibit 2.

The company wants to minimize congestion on Link 1.

Which spanning tree implementation meets this goal?

Instance 1 = VLANs 4-5 Instance 2 = VLANs 6-7 Switch 2 instance 1 priority = 0 Switch 2 instance 2 priority = 1 Switch 3 instance 1 priority = 1 Switch 3 instance 2 priority = 0

Instance 1 = VLANs 4,6 Instance 2 = VLANs 5,7 Switch 2 instance 1 priority = 0 Switch 2 instance 2 priority = 1 Switch 3 instance 1 priority = 1 Switch 3 instance 2 priority = 0

Instance 1 = VLANs 4,6 Instance 2 = VLANs 5,7 Switch 2 instance 1 priority = 0 Switch 2 instance 2 priority = 1 Switch 3 instance 1 priority = 0 Switch 3 instance 2 priority = 1

Instance 1 = VLANs 4-5 Instance 2 = VLANs 6-7 Switch 2 instance 1 priority = 0 Switch 2 instance 2 priority = 1 Switch 3 instance 1 priority = 0 Switch 3 instance 2 priority = 1

Show Answer

Correct Answer: B

To minimize congestion on Link 1, switch-to-switch traffic should be evenly distributed across the switches. By assigning Switch 2 as the root for VLANs 4 and 6, and Switch 3 as the root for VLANs 5 and 7 (as detailed in Option B), traffic will be better balanced. This ensures that no single link is disproportionately utilized, thereby minimizing congestion on Link 1.

Answer should be B. In order to load balance Vlans across switches each switch needs to be root for an MST instance. Only B meets that requirement.
