Solution
The two correct statements regarding RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) are:
- RSTP defines new port roles.
- RSTP is compatible with the original IEEE 802.1D STP (Spanning Tree Protocol).
Explanation:
-
RSTP introduces new port roles such as the alternate and backup roles to enhance the functionality of STP.
-
RSTP (IEEE 802.1w) was designed to be backwards-compatible with standard STP (IEEE 802.1D). This means that a network can mix STP and RSTP switches, and RSTP will maintain operability.
