Answer:

Blocking Mode    

Explanation:

Spanning Tree Protocol is used to allow path redundancy in the network without creating cycles/circles also called loops.

When two parts of the switched network are connected via two or more Layer 2 switches this result in a loop.

This affects the performance of the network as the result of broadcast packets flooding.

STP puts one port of the switch to forwarding mode and the rest of the ports within the same part of the network to the blocking mode to avoid broadcast packet flooding. STP puts all the ports that are allowing redundant paths to blocking mode and the one port that is left after this is placed in forward mode.

Spanning Tree Algorithm is used by STP to determine the optimal path  of switch to the network.

Bridge Protocol Data Units are used to share the information about the optimal path determined by the spanning tree algorithm with other switches.

This information helps STP to eliminate the redundant paths.

So this is how STP allows only one active path to the destination while blocking all other paths to avoid switching loop.

Which of the following is an example of a syntax error?
Yuri [45]

Answer:

misspelling a programming language word

Explanation:

Syntax error is the type of error in programming, when the programmer insert some symbol that is not present in directories or libraries, the programmer not followed the rules of that particular programming language that is understandable to compiler.

For example in C++, it is necessary to insert the semicolon (;) after each statement. If the programmer not insert the semicolon after each statement, the program will show the syntax error.

If the programmer use integer instead of int to assign datatype to the variable in C++, it will also leads to the syntax error. Because in C++ library, Integer is defined with the help of "int".
