Which action is performed by Link Management Protocol in a Cisco StackWise Virtual domain?

A. It rejects any unidirectional link traffic forwarding
B. It discovers the StackWise domain and brings up SVL interfaces
C. It determines which switch becomes active or standby.
D. It determines if the hardware is compatible to form the StackWise Virtual domain.

Correct Answer: A

The Link Management Protocol (LMP) is activated on each link of the StackWise Virtual link as soon as it is brought up online. The LMP performs the following functions:

• Verifies link integrity by establishing bidirectional traffic forwarding, and rejects any unidirectional links
• Exchanges periodic hellos to monitor and maintain the health of the links 
• Negotiates the version of StackWise Virtual header between the switches
