Based on the location of the root bridge, theother switches determine which of their ports has the lowest path cost to the root bridge. These ports are called root ports, and each switch (other than the current root bridge) must have one.

What is spaning tree protocol?
STP stand for Spaning Tree Protocol. It's used to avoid the L2 loop in the network. many factor are belong to STP. such as Root Switch, BPDU, Root Port, Forward port, blocking port.
Which protocol prevent forwarding loops?
Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP)
What is a characteristic of Spanning Tree Protocol?
A spanning tree protocol, or STP, is characteristic to a LAN. It provides a loop-free topology for networks within the system.
Which spanning-tree command setting could be assigned to force a catalyst switch to become and remain the root bridge?
root primary
What does learning mean as it relates to spanning tree protocol?
The switch is receiving BPDUs and populating the MAC address table, but not sending data.
What port role specifies a forwarding port elected for every switch LAN segment when using the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol?
Designated
What do you use To eliminate the possibility of a broadcast storm?
STP (Spanning Tree Protocol)
Which approach eliminates loops when multiple switches are implemented in a network?
Spanning tree protocol
What potential problem does stp spanning tree protocol address?
d. A broadcast storm
Advantages and disadvantages of spanning tree protocol in networking?
the disadvantage os stp that it is time consuming.
How does Spanning Tree Protocol aid network architecture?
Allows for redundant links by eliminating loops.
How catalyst switch different from the simple switch?
Catalyst switches have support for several technologies that may be used in larger networks, and that are not available on home switches - for example, VLANs, and STP (Spanning-Tree Protocol), as well as options for port security.Catalyst switches have support for several technologies that may be used in larger networks, and that are not available on home switches - for example, VLANs, and STP (Spanning-Tree Protocol), as well as options for port security.Catalyst switches have support for several technologies that may be used in larger networks, and that are not available on home switches - for example, VLANs, and STP (Spanning-Tree Protocol), as well as options for port security.Catalyst switches have support for several technologies that may be used in larger networks, and that are not available on home switches - for example, VLANs, and STP (Spanning-Tree Protocol), as well as options for port security.
