Q10. Mike wants to improve the available bandwidth in his network by limiting the broadcast and multicast traffic, such that the traffic flows only to the required links (I.e. only intended network devices). What is the technique available for limiting the broadcast, and multicast traffic only to the required network devices in a switched VLAN network?
B. VTP pruning
|
Correct answer: A
Explanation:
VTP pruning is a technique that enhances the available network bandwidth by reducing the broadcast, multicast, and flooded unicast messages. These frames are not forwarded to network devices that don't have ports associated with a given VLAN. When VTP pruning is enabled, a switch forwards the flooded traffic across a link to another switch, only if that switch has ports associated with that VLAN.
