What does the Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) do?
A.) Restore lost frames
B.) Builds routing tables for routing through an internetwork
C.) Forward packets through a switch
D.) STA is implemented by STP to prevent loops
Answer / guest
Answer: D
IEEE 8021.d Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) was developed to
prevent
routing loops in a network. If a router, switch, or hub has
more then
one path to the same destination, a routing problem could
occur. To
prevent this, the Spanning Tree Protocol is executed between
the devices
to detect and logically block redundant paths from the
network. The main
function of the Spanning Tree Protocol is to allow redundant
network
paths without suffering the effects of loops in the network.
The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) implemented by STP
prevents loops by
calculating a stable Spanning Tree network topology. When
creating fault
tolerant internetworks, a loop-free path must exist between
all Ethernet
nodes in the network. Spanning Tree frames called Bridge
Protocol Data
Units (BPDUs) are sent and received by all switches in the
network at
regular intervals.

Identify 3 characteristics of a connection oriented protocol? A.) Path determination B.) Flow control C.) Acknowledgements D.) Uses hop count as metric E.) 3 step handshake
How does the cut-through switching technique work? A.) By using broadcast address as source addresses B.) The switch waits only for the header to be received before it checks the destination address and starts forwarding the packets C.) The LAN switch copies the entire frame into its onboard buffers and then looks up the destination address in its forwarding, or switching, table and determines the outgoing interface D.) By using a Class I repeater in a collision domain
