SNCF — Securing Networks with Firepower — Question 11

Which protocol establishes network redundancy in a switched Firepower device deployment?

Answer options

• A. STP
• B. HSRP
• C. GLBP
• D. VRRP

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, STP (Spanning Tree Protocol), which is designed to prevent loops in network topologies and thus provides redundancy. HSRP, GLBP, and VRRP are protocols that help with gateway redundancy, but they do not specifically address redundancy at the switch level like STP does.
