Selected Answer: B

In Rapid PVST+ (Rapid Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus), a backup port is a port that provides a redundant path to a segment where another bridge port already connects. The backup port is in a blocking state to prevent loops and does not handle traffic unless the designated port fails. When the designated port is functioning normally, the backup port does not actively use its path. Therefore, the operating mode and role of a backup port on a shared LAN segment in Rapid PVST+ is: B. blocking mode and provides an alternate path toward the designated bridge
