A company has an FC SAN environment. The company’s network administrator wants to ensure that a
particular switch port cannot function as an EPort and cannot be used to create an interswitch link. Which
security mechanism should be used?
A.
Persistent port disable
B.
Virtual SAN
C.
Port type locking
D.
Port binding
Explanation:
Answer C is correct IMO. From the student Guide:
“The port security controls such as port locking and port-type
locking complement fabric binding by helping to prevent unauthorized access to a switch. Port
locking persistently (even after a switch reboot) prohibits an unused switch port from being used.
Port-type locking can be used to restrict how a specific switch port is used, such as preventing it
from being initialized as an inter-switch link.”
