The Lag 1 interface will be assigned the Alternate role. I mean, come on, it's not like they're gonna let it be the Designated port, right? That would just be too easy.

Backup, definitely. It's the only logical choice since Switch-1 isn't the root bridge. Although, I'm still trying to figure out why they didn't just make it the primary bridge. Bureaucracy, am I right?

Maybe there were specific reasons for not making it the root.

Yeah, it's strange that they didn't just make Switch-1 the root bridge.

That makes sense, Designated ports are chosen based on the lowest path cost to the root bridge.

I disagree, I believe the Role will be Designated because it is not the root bridge.

Hmm, let's see. The ports are all point-to-point, and Switch-1 is not the root bridge. I think the Lag 1 interface will be assigned the Backup role. Gotta love these tricky STP questions!

User 2: Yeah, STP questions can be tricky, but it's important to understand the roles of each interface.
