A network engineer is comparing classic STP and RSTP for a network that requires fast convergence. Which statement accurately describes a key difference between the two protocols?

RSTP uses the same port states as STP but adds new port roles

RSTP has a longer max age timer to ensure stability

RSTP converges faster because it uses a proposal/agreement handshake on point-to-point links

RSTP relies on timers for convergence, while STP uses a handshake

Part of the Spanning Tree domain, which makes up ~11% of our current practice bank. Juniper Networks does not publish an official question count, but from its 90-minute exam (~35–60 total, ~4–7 in this domain), expect 1–1 from this objective — we provide 25 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
