Wait, is this a trick question? Maybe the port is discarding because the admin forgot to enable Fortinet's secret magic mode.

Option D sounds good to me. If Core-2 has the lowest bridge priority, then it should be the root bridge, and port1 would be in a discarding state.

User 3: So, the reason port1 is in the discarding state is because Core-2 has the lowest bridge priority. Got it.

Haha, looks like someone forgot to configure their MCLAG! I bet the network admin is scratching their head on this one.

I'm not convinced. If Access-1 is the root bridge, then port1 on Core-2 should be the root port, not in a discarding state.

Option B seems logical. If Core-1 and Core-2 don't have MCLAG, then they can't form a redundant uplink and port1 on Core-2 will be in a discarding state.

User 2: That makes sense. Without redundancy, port1 on Core-2 would be in a discarding state.

I think the answer is A) port1 on Core-2 is discarding only management traffic.
