B.

C.

D.

Explanation:
To mitigate STP manipulation, two different features can be used. The Root Guard feature is
configured on a switchport that should never become a root port, or in other words, the port that
forwards traffic going toward the root bridge. A good example of this would be a connection
between a distribution layer switch and an access layer switch. In this scenario, the port on the
distribution switch going toward the access layer should never become a root port because the
access layer switch should never become the root switch. If the switchport does receive a superior
BPDU, the port will go into root-inconsistent state, indicating that another switch is attempting to
become the root switch.
