Fortinet NSE6_FSW-7.2 Exam - Topic 4 Question 24 Discussion

Actual exam question for Fortinet's NSE6_FSW-7.2 exam

Question #: 24
Topic #: 4

Exhibit.

LAG and MCLAG are used to increase the available network bandwidth and enable redundancy. How does spanning tree protocol see MCLAG and LAG if they are configured based on the physi-cal view shown in the exhibit? (Choose two)

ASwitch 1. Switch 2, and Switch 3 are seen as one MCLAG peer group

BSwitch 3 and Switch 4 uplinks are treated as single interfaces.

CSwitch 3 and switch 4 are seen as one MCLAG switch client

DSwitch 1 and Switch 2 both seen as one single switch.

MCLAG is tricky, but I think it’s all about redundancy!

Wait, how can Switch 1 and 2 be seen as one?

If I recall correctly, Switch 1 and Switch 2 should be seen as one switch by spanning tree, but I'm a bit confused about the specifics of MCLAG.

I feel like Switch 3 and Switch 4 might be seen as a single interface, but I can't quite remember if that's correct in this context.

I think I practiced a similar question where MCLAG was involved, and I recall that Switch 1 and Switch 2 are treated as a single entity in some scenarios.

I remember studying how MCLAG allows for redundancy, but I'm not entirely sure how spanning tree views the switches in this setup.

Alright, I've got a strategy here. I'll start by identifying the MCLAG and LAG components in the exhibit, then consider how spanning tree would view those logical groupings versus the individual physical links. That should help me narrow down the correct answer choices.

This is a tricky one. I'm a bit confused about how the spanning tree protocol handles MCLAG and LAG setups. I'll need to review my notes and try to reason through the different options presented in the question.

I think the key here is to remember that spanning tree operates on the logical topology, not just the physical connections. So I need to think about how the MCLAG and LAG configurations would be seen by spanning tree.

Okay, let me take a closer look at the exhibit. It looks like there are multiple switches connected via MCLAG and LAG. I'll need to consider how spanning tree would interpret these logical groupings versus the physical connections.

Hmm, this question seems to be testing my understanding of how spanning tree protocol handles MCLAG and LAG configurations. I'll need to carefully analyze the physical topology shown in the exhibit and think through how the spanning tree would view the different switch connections.

Definitely a brain teaser! It's like a puzzle trying to figure out how STP sees MCLAG and LAG.

Aha! I got it. A, B, and C are the answers. MCLAG groups the switches, LAG combines the uplinks, and the MCLAG client is seen as a single switch. Easy peasy!

Hmm, D doesn't sound right. Switch 1 and Switch 2 are separate switches, even if they're part of an MCLAG. Spanning tree should see them as individual devices.

I think C is also correct. Since Switch 3 and Switch 4 are part of the MCLAG, they would be seen as a single switch client by spanning tree.

A and B seem like the correct answers. MCLAG groups the switches together, and LAG treats the uplinks as a single interface. Spanning tree would see the topology as a single logical switch.
