正解:A
Explanation
A broadcast storm is a situation where a network is flooded with broadcast packets, which are sent to all devices on the network. This can consume bandwidth, cause congestion, and degrade performance. A broadcast storm can be caused by improper network configurations, such as loops or misconfigured switches.
In this scenario, the old switches may have created loops or failed to filter broadcast packets, resulting in a broadcast storm that overwhelmed the network.
