What is one difference between BPDU protection and root guard?
The correct answer is B. BPDU protection blocks a port if it receives any BPDU, and root guard blocks a port only if the BPDU indicates a better root path. See the full explanation below for the reasoning.
Question
What is one difference between BPDU protection and root guard?
Options
- ABPDU protection works with PVST+, RSTP, and MSTP. Root guard works with RSTP or MSTP, but not RPVST+.
- BBPDU protection blocks a port if it receives any BPDU, and root guard blocks a port only if the BPDU indicates a better root path.
- CBPDU protection is typically implemented on edge ports, but root guard is typically implemented on uplinks with the root port role.
- DBPDU protection drops BPDUs received on a port, but does not block the port. Root guard blocks the port if it receives a BPDU.
