Question 170
After implementing the approved change — Verify optic type, fiber reach, polarity and connector compatibility against both switch ports — for this scenario: A fiber uplink between two buildings never reaches operational up state. Which observed result BEST verifies the outcome?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The optical link reports stable up state with expected speed and error counters. This is the observable acceptance evidence for the decision to verify optic type, fiber reach, polarity and connector compatibility against both switch ports. It demonstrates the principle that optical physical-layer compatibility is required before logical configuration.
Incorrect Answers
This verification choice fits a different situation: An access closet requires both redundant power and PoE for cameras. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive verification choice is to the optical link reports stable up state with expected speed and error counters.
This verification choice fits a different situation: A remote rack has uplink ports but inconsistent link speeds and duplex behavior. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive verification choice is to the optical link reports stable up state with expected speed and error counters.
This verification choice fits a different situation: A new AOS-CX switch appears in device inventory but has no intended Central configuration. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive verification choice is to the optical link reports stable up state with expected speed and error counters.
