Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
CoPP uses a class map to classify traffic destined for the control plane.
CoPP uses a class map to match traffic (often with ACLs) and a policy map to define actions. The policy map is applied to the control plane. CoPP can police traffic to a specific rate using the 'police' command. The 'control-plane' command enters the control plane configuration mode. CoPP does not use 'ip access-group' on the control plane. CoPP can be applied to both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic.

Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
CoPP uses a class map to classify traffic destined for the control plane.
Why this is correct
Correct because class maps define traffic classes using match statements, often referencing ACLs.

The 'control-plane' command is used to enter control plane configuration mode.
Why this is correct
