Cisco CCNA 200-301 Practice Question

Which action is considered a Cisco-recommended security best practice for handling unused access ports on a Catalyst switch?

  • Place each unused port in an unused VLAN that is not allowed on trunk links, and administratively shut down the port.

  • Set the native VLAN on each unused port to VLAN 1 and enable PortFast to speed STP convergence.

  • Leave unused ports in VLAN 1 so that CDP and STP monitoring remains functional.

  • Configure each unused port as a dynamic trunk port so it can automatically negotiate when a device is connected.
