200-301 · Question #892
Refer to the exhibit. Switch AccSw1 has just been added to the network along with PC2. All VLANs have been implemented on AccSw2. How must the ports on AccSw2 be configured to establish Layer 2 connec
The correct answer is B. interface GigabitEthernet1/1. To establish Layer 2 connectivity between PC1 and PC2, the inter-switch link on AccSw2 connecting to AccSw1 must be configured as a trunk port to carry VLAN traffic.

Why each option
To establish Layer 2 connectivity between PC1 and PC2, the inter-switch link on AccSw2 connecting to AccSw1 must be configured as a trunk port to carry VLAN traffic.
Without the exhibit, there is no specific role for GigabitEthernet1/2 that would make it the primary port for establishing inter-switch Layer 2 connectivity.
Assuming GigabitEthernet1/1 on AccSw2 is the designated uplink port connecting to AccSw1, configuring this port as a trunk (e.g., `switchport mode trunk`) would allow VLAN traffic from PC2 (connected to AccSw1) to traverse to AccSw2 and reach PC1, establishing Layer 2 connectivity across switches.
Without the exhibit, there is no specific role for GigabitEthernet1/24 that would make it the primary port for establishing inter-switch Layer 2 connectivity.
This option is a duplicate of option A and does not represent the correct port or configuration for the required connectivity.
