Refer to the exhibit. Which switch becomes the root bridge?
The correct answer is B. S2. Lower priority means it is preferred compared to a higher. If there is a tie in priority then the lowest MAC address will determine which bridge becomes the root. Because S2 has the lowest MAC address, S2 becomes the root bridge.
