Port security is pretty obvious. The key word here is: "switch" so port security is key to this question.

I thought Geofencing at first because I was thinking Wireless AP that was accessible by people outside the intended premesis. However as it is a switch, you would have to connect via the physical ports on the decide, so port security is the correct answer.

C. Port Security Port security is a feature on network switches that allows the switch to restrict access to its ports based on a device's MAC address. This prevents unintended or unauthorized connections. By limiting the number of MAC addresses that can attach to a switch port, or by specifying a list of allowed MAC addresses, a network admin can ensure that only authorized devices can connect to the network.

Port security lets you decide on opening, or blocking ports from outgoing, or incoming connections.

Its C because the switch is access to the public and we wouldn't one someone to be able to just plug into the open ports.
