Which of the following IEEE standards is used for frame tagging?
  1. ISL
  2. 802.1Q
  3. 802.3Z
  4. 802.3U
Explanation
Answer - B - 802.1Q defines the IEEE standard used for frame tagging.

Key Takeaway: The 802.1Q standard enables large LANs to be broken into much smaller fragments. The fragmenting of the LAN using this protocol provides a much more secure environment between the segments of the internal network. This standard defines the operation of VLAN bridges that permit the definition, operation, and administration of Virtual LAN topologies within a bridged LAN infrastructure.
