Exam N10-007 topic 1 question 24 discussion

where is Sticky Mac on the exam objectives?

This is the first I have heard of "sticky MAC". I never seen this term on the Network + objectives.

Answer is A. But once again CompTIA words their questions like absolute morons. Sticky mac doesn't "dynamically assign" a layer 2 address. It learns the layer 2 address and retains it so that it can restrict access to that device.

jason dion has a question about stick macs for those of you thinking its not in the objectives, you are misinformed. OBJ-4.2: Persistent MAC learning, also known as Sticky MAC, is a port security feature that enables an interface to retain dynamically learned MAC addresses when the switch is restarted or if the interface goes down and is brought back online. This is a security feature that can be used to prevent someone from unplugging their office computer and connecting their own laptop to the network jack without permission since the switch port connected to that network jack would only allow the computer with the original MAC address to gain connectivity using Sticky MAC.

I'm curious as to what Net+ objective this would fall under?

Sticky MAC is a port security feature that dynamically learns MAC addresses on an interface and retains the MAC information in case the Mobility Access Switch reboots. Sticky MAC is an alternative to the tedious and manual configuration of static MAC addresses on a port or to allow the port to continuously learn new MAC addresses after interface-down events. Allowing the port to continuously learn MAC addresses is a security risk. Sticky MAC prevents traffic losses for trusted workstations and servers because the interface does not have to relearn the addresses from ingress traffic after a restart. reference: https://community.arubanetworks.com/browse/articles/blogviewer?blogkey=b00359e1-4cf0-428c-8b39-00992bb60042

You can't use Sticky Mac to both assign and limit traffic?
