An administrator is configuring a switch that will be placed in an area of the office that is accessible to customers. Which of the following is the best way for the administrator to mitigate unknown devices from connecting to the network?
The correct answer is:
D. 802.1X
Explanation:
802.1X is a network access control protocol that provides port-based authentication for devices attempting to connect to a network. It ensures that only authorized devices and users can access the network by requiring authentication before granting access. This is particularly useful for mitigating the risk of unknown devices connecting to a switch in a public or semi-public area.
