Your customer is concerned about users connecting unmanaged switches to the network and causing outages. Which CX switch feature should you recommend?
The correct answer is B. BPDU Guard. BPDU Guard prevents users from connecting unmanaged switches that might send spanning- tree BPDUs and cause topology changes or loops. When a BPDU is detected on a port where it should not be, the port is shut down, protecting the network.
