    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • If STP is used, the Juniper EX switch must be configured to implement Rapid STP, or Multiple STP, where VLANs span multiple switches with redundant links.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is implemented on bridges and switches to prevent layer 2 loops when a broadcast domain spans mu...

    Group
  • The Juniper EX switch must not be configured with VLANs used for L2 control traffic assigned to any host-facing access interface.
