QuestionQ7

1. Identify, describe, and apply foundational networking architectures and technologies.

In a switched infrastructure that uses spanning tree, which entity defines the best path for traffic in an HPE Aruba Networking CX environment?

Explanation

The root bridge is the reference switch for the spanning-tree topology. All other switches select their lowest-cost path toward the root bridge, and spanning tree assigns forwarding or blocking roles to prevent loops. Aruba AOS-CX documentation states that the topology forms after the root bridge, root ports, and designated ports are selected.
