  4. AC

    That B saying “support”….while it is “ports”.

    MACsec Support on Switch Ports
    Interface

    MACsec support
    User-facing downlink ports
    Switch-to-host
    MKA MACsec encryption

  5. The actual full question is: An engineer is configuring MACsec encryption. Which two components does Cisco TrustSec NDAC MACsec support? (Choose two.).
    TrustSec NDAC (Network Device Admission Control) MACsec is used only between switch-to-switch. The only instance MACsec is used with hosts is MACsec MKA. These exact terms and descriptions are on the Cisco website so the answer to the question that mentions NDAC, is definitely switch to switch and switch ports connected to other switches.
