Refer to the figure. Which ports will become the designated ports? (Choose two.)

  • All of the ports on S1 because it is the root bridge.
  • The F0/2 and F0/3 ports on S2.
  • The F0/2 and F0/3 ports on S3.
  • The F0/2, F0/3, and F0/4 ports on S4.

Explanation:

  • Root ports are the ports with the lowest path cost to the root. Since S1 is the root bridge, it does not need root ports. Therefore, all ports on a root bridge that are connected to other STP switches are designated ports.
  • On S2, both F0/2 and F0/3 will become designated ports.
