Explanation

B is correct because the described behavior - clustering exclusively via a cluster card on the main control board - is characteristic of CSS1, not CSS2. CSS2 technology allows cluster connections to be established through service ports, eliminating the dependency on dedicated cluster cards. The statement incorrectly maps a CSS1 limitation to CSS2.

Why A is wrong: Accepting the statement as true would conflate two distinct clustering technologies. The restriction to main-control-board cluster cards is precisely what distinguishes CSS1 from the more flexible CSS2, so labeling it CSS2 is factually backwards.

Memory tip: Think of it as CSS1 = Card-dependent, CSS2 = Service-port capable. If a switch requires a dedicated cluster card to form a cluster, it's CSS1. CSS2 "upgraded" clustering by enabling service ports - so more flexibility = CSS2.
