RSTP adds features beyond STP that enable ports to be used for a role if another port on the same switch fails. Which of the following statements correctly describe a port role that is waiting to take over for another port role? (Choose two answers.)
- An alternate port waits to become a root port.
- A backup port waits to become a root port.
- An alternate port waits to become a designated port.
- A backup port waits to become a designated port.
Explanation: With RSTP, an alternate port is an alternate to the root port when a switch’s root port fails. A backup port takes over for a designated port if the designated port fails.
