Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks (CCNP SWITCH, legacy) — Question 97

What do subordinate switches in a switch stack keep?

Answer options

• A. Subordinate switches keep their own spanning trees for each VLAN that they support.
• B. Subordinate switches keep entire VLAN database
• C. Store running config all the switches
• D. Subordinate switches does not keep their own spanning trees A

Correct answer:

Explanation

The correct answer is A because subordinate switches do indeed keep their own spanning trees for each VLAN they support, ensuring proper traffic management. Option B is incorrect as subordinate switches do not hold the entire VLAN database; this is typically managed by the master switch. Option C is misleading because while configurations are saved, they are managed collectively rather than stored individually by subordinate switches. Option D is also incorrect as it contradicts A.
