An administrator who is troubleshooting connectivity issues on a switch notices that a switch port configured for port security is in the err-disabled state. After verifying the cause of the violation, how should the administrator re-enable the port without disrupting network operation?

a. Reboot the switch.

b. Issue the shutdown command followed by the no shutdown command on the interface.

c. Issue the no switchport port-security command, then re-enable port security.

d. Issue the no switchport port-security violation shutdown command on the interface.

b. Issue the shutdown command followed by the no shutdown command on the interface.

a. ip dhcp snooping

A network administrator is configuring DAI on a switch with the command ip arp inspection validate dst-mac. What is the purpose of this configuration command?
