QuestionQ244

Security

An engineer configures port security on a Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switch. The MDS switch configuration must satisfy these requirements:

  • The switch must activate the VSAN 4 port-security database despite any conflicts.
  • New devices must be added statically to the switch.
  • VSAN 4 configuration changes must be applied across the fabric, with any fabric locks released.

Which configuration set satisfies these requirements?

  • A port-security activate vsan 4no port-security auto-learn vsan 4port-security allocateport-security commit vsan 4
  • B port-security activate vsan 4 forceport-security auto-learn vsan 4port-security distributeport-security commit
  • C port-security activate vsan 4port-security manual-learn vsan 4port-security allocateport-security commit
  • D port-security activate vsan 4 forceno port-security auto-learn vsan 4port-security distributeport-security commit vsan 4
Explanation

port-security activate vsan 4 force activates the VSAN 4 database despite conflicts. Disabling auto-learning ensures that newly connected devices are not learned automatically and must instead be configured statically. port-security distribute enables CFS distribution, and port-security commit vsan 4 distributes the pending VSAN 4 configuration throughout the fabric and releases the associated lock.
