Of the given answers, I would agree 100%
Had there been a choice
f) Avoid routing loops on a LAN / VLAN.
I would probably have selected that one - but then again, I don't know the
original idea behind the creation of the STP.
Hth,
Ole

Question
Spanning Tree protocol was designed to:
a) Simulate a layer 3 (link-state) routing protocol, efficiently forwarding
packets between layer two devices.
b) Dynamically determine best path selection for layer 2 devices.
c) Provide capability for SNA gateways to use duplicate MAC addresses,
enabling network redundancy.
d) Trunk multiple pathways effectively increasing inter-segment bandwidth by
multiples of the trunk paths.
e) Provide load balancing between redundant network connections.
Answer
