It is common to use Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) on the manufacturing floor as a resiliency protocol, as opposed to the Enterprise where it is not generally deployed.

What are two reasons why REP is more suitable for the plant floor? (Choose two)

It is common to use Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) on the manufacturing floor as a resiliency protocol, as opposed to the Enterprise where it is not generally deployed.

What are two reasons why REP is more suitable for the plant floor? (Choose two)

A.
REP is only supported on Industrial Ethernet switches, it is not supported on Catalyst switches.

B.
REP converges faster than Spanning Tree, allowing for greater network availability.

C.
REP supports Industrial Ethernet protocols better because it moves the packets faster.

D.
Running dual cables from access switches to an aggregation switch can have a much higher cost on the plant floor than in the Enterprise and running a ring protocol like REP provides resiliency at a lower cost.

E.
Industrial protocols can be negatively impacted by the number of nodes the Ethernet frame traverses, REP provides a topology with no more than 3 nodes for any data path.
