Refer to the exhibit. [Image of Commander and Standby switches with failed backplane stacking links] An administrator created a backplane stack with the plug-and-play method, and did not alter the default backplane stacking settings. Later, two backplane stacking links failed, as shown in the exhibit. What happens to the backplane stack after the failures?

  • CThe fragment that contains the commander remains active, and the fragment with the standby member is disabled.
  • DThe standby becomes the commander of its fragment. Both fragments remain active and operate at both Layer 2 and Layer 3.
