CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 388

A network manager is concerned about visitors taking advantage of open cubicies at a company's facilities. Which of the following would mitigate this issue?

Answer options

• A. Create a VLAN for all unused switchports.
• B. Implement a DMZ for all external services.
• C. Implement root guard on all switches.
• D. Create a honeypot to attract attackers.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Creating a VLAN for all unused switchports effectively isolates those ports from the network, thus preventing unauthorized access. The other options do not address the issue of securing open cubicles; a DMZ is for external services, root guard protects against specific switch attacks, and a honeypot is meant to lure attackers rather than prevent access.
