Which of the following specification will allow you to: associate VLAN groups to STP instances so
you can provide multiple forwarding paths for data traffic and enable load balancing?
A.
IEEE 802.1d (STP)
B.
IEEE 802.1s (MST)
C.
IEEE 802.1Q (CST)
D.
IEEE 802.1w (RSTP)
Explanation:
IEEE 802.1s MST Overview
MST extends the IEEE 802.1w rapid spanning tree (RST) algorithm to multiple spanning trees.
This extension provides both rapid convergence and load balancing in a VLAN environment. MST
converges faster than PVST+. MST is backward compatible with 802.1D STP, 802.1w (rapid
spanning tree protocol [RSTP]), and the Cisco PVST+ architecture.
