Which two statements describe a switch port that is configured with PortFast? (Choose two.)

• The switch port immediately transitions from the listening to the forwarding state.
• The switch port immediately transitions from blocking to the forwarding state.
• The switch port sends DHCP requests before transitioning to the forwarding state.
• The switch port immediately processes any BPDUs before transitioning to the forwarding state.
• The switch port should never receive BPDUs.

Explanation: A port that is configured with PortFast will immediately transition from blocking to the forwarding state. PortFast should only be configured on switch ports that support end devices, so no BPDUs should ever be received through a port that is configured with PortFast. Configuring a port with PortFast supports DHCP because PortFast will speed up the transition from blocking to forwarding. Without PortFast, an end device may begin to issue DHCP requests before the port has transitioned to the forwarding state.
