Atlantic, gulf ports , and Mississippi River.
A designated port is the ports that goes from the root bridge switch to the edge of the network, so there is always a path from the root bridge to the other end. In contrast to root ports, which goes to the root bridge, instead of away from it. All ports that isn't root ports or designated ports are blocked.
A USB lock works by physically blocking USB ports from unauthorised access, thus preventing unauthorised data transfer, which reduces the risk of data leakage, data theft and computer viruses.

waterways, ports
The department concerned with the safety of waterways and ports of entry is typically the U.S. Coast Guard, which operates under the Department of Homeland Security. The Coast Guard is responsible for ensuring maritime safety, security, and environmental protection in U.S. waters. Additionally, the Army Corps of Engineers also plays a role in maintaining navigable waterways and ports through infrastructure management and environmental stewardship.
It consists of railways, highways, waterways, pipelines, ports and harbors, marines and airports
By placing some ports in the blocking states
In a network using the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), ports on network switches can be in either a blocking or forwarding state. Ports in the forwarding state actively send and receive data, while those in the blocking state do not forward frames to prevent loops in the network topology. Switches dynamically switch ports between these states based on the network topology and the need to maintain a loop-free environment, particularly during changes such as link failures or topology changes. The root bridge and designated ports are typically in forwarding state, while non-designated ports may be blocked to prevent loops.
the Anaconda Plan.
General Winfield Scott's plan to defeat the Confederacy was known as the "Anaconda Plan." This strategy aimed to suffocate the Southern economy by blockading ports and taking control of the Mississippi River, effectively dividing the Confederacy and limiting its ability to sustain the war effort. The plan emphasized a gradual approach to victory through economic pressure and strategic control.
