Huawei Certified ICT Associate – Data Center Network (HCIA-DCN) — Question 83

Which of the following port status may exist on an STP-enabled switch? Select 1

Answer options

• A. Forwarding
• B. Listening
• C. Discarding
• D. Disabled

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, Forwarding, as this is a valid state for ports in a Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) environment, allowing traffic to flow. While Listening and Discarding are also STP states, they do not permit data transmission, and Disabled is not a standard STP state for active port roles.
