In Rapid PVST+, which port role is assigned to a non-root switch's port that provides the best path towards the root bridge?
Designated Port
Root Port
Alternate Port
Backup Port
The root port is the port on a non-root switch that has the lowest-cost path to the root bridge. It is responsible for forwarding traffic upstream towards the root bridge. Designated ports are interfaces that forward traffic away from the root bridge on the designated switch. Alternate and backup ports are in a blocking state, serving as redundancies in case the active path fails.
