GPT says To address the risk of a rogue switch being connected to a network jack, the best control is to activate port security on the switchports that provide end-user access. Port security is a feature available on network switches that allows administrators to control which devices can connect to switchports.
A. Activate port security on the switchports providing end user access would BEST address the risk of a rogue switch being connected to the network. Port security limits the number of devices that can connect to a particular switchport, thereby preventing unauthorized devices from connecting to the network. By limiting the number of MAC addresses allowed on each switchport, the network administrator can help prevent rogue devices from connecting and potentially causing security issues.
A. Activate port security on the switchports providing end user access.
