The correct answer is A. Allowed VLANs between access switches. Only clients connected to Access-2 are affected, while the server is also on Access-2 in VLAN 20.

Explanation

Only clients connected to Access-2 are affected, while the server is also on Access-2 in VLAN 20. This points to VLAN 20 not being consistently carried across the inter-switch trunk after the change, so traffic from some Access-2 user ports mapped to VLAN 20 would fail to reach Server- 1. Checking the trunk's allowed VLAN list between the access switches verifies whether VLAN 20 is permitted end-to-end. Exam Questions, Study Guides, Practice Tests.
