Which of the following protocols can be used to prevent loops on a Layer 2 network with redundant links?
Which of the following protocols can be used to prevent loops on a Layer 2 network with redundant links?
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is specifically designed to prevent network loops by creating a loop-free logical topology for Ethernet networks. It achieves this by blocking redundant paths that could potentially cause broadcast storms and network instability. STP constantly monitors the network to ensure that only the most optimum path is active, while redundant links are placed in a standby state to be activated if the active path fails.
The anser is B. STP Spanning Tree Protocol is used to blocking port, used for prevent layer 2 loop
