these statements regarding port states is true of both 802.1 D and 802.1w?
A.
All 802.1 D port states (Disabled, Blocking, Listening, Learning, and Forwarding) are identical in
802.1w.
B.
The 802.1 D port states Disabled and Blocking have become the 802.1w port state Discarding,
and all other 802.1D port states remain the same in 802.1w.
C.
The 802.1 D port states Disabled, Blocking, and Listening have become the 802.1w port state
Discarding, and all other 802.1D port states remain the same in 802.1w.
D.
The 802.1 D port states Disabled, Blocking, and Listening have been removed completely from
802.1w (there is no corresponding port state), and all other 802.1 D port states remain the same in
802.1w. )
E.
The 802.1 D port state Disabled has been removed from 802.1w, and the 802.1 D port states
Blocking and Listening have become the 802.1w port state Discarding; all other 802.1D port states
remain the same in 802.1w.
