A.

B.
The switch generates a Topology Change Notification (TCN) BPDU.

C.

D.

I think it is C and D.

One other benefit of PortFast is that
Topology Change Notification (TCN) BPDUs are not sent when a switch port in PortFast
mode goes up or down. This simplifies the TCN transmission on a large network when
end-user workstations are coming up or shutting down.

C is not correct unless you configured BPDU Guard.

Correct. But neither is B as far as I`ve seen on Cisco`s site and documentation.

B is correct. (D as well)

Port Edge means RSTP. Topology change packet are sent by non root bridge when a “non-edge” port transition to the forwarding state . This is the case when you port which previously was an edge port, receive a bpdu. the port becomes a non-edge port and remains and goes through the phases learning / forwarding. This triggers the TCN
