Campus and Branch LAN Design

A government-organization customer has strict security requirements. They want to extend their Layer 2 infrastructure across multiple buildings in the same campus environment and ensure that no unauthorized devices connect between switches in different buildings.

Which solution provides data security for this environment?

Explanation

MACsec provides IEEE 802.1AE hop-by-hop Layer 2 protection on Ethernet links, delivering confidentiality, integrity, and data-origin authentication for inter-switch traffic. It is therefore suited to securing campus Layer 2 connections between buildings and ensuring that only authenticated peers can establish protected communications.
