HP HPE7-A08 Practice Test 6

Question 50

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer faces this wired-network scenario: A proposed switch must support particular advanced routing and security features. Which implementation action BEST addresses the requirement?

  1. Select compatible VSX-capable aggregation models and design independent peer plus ISL and keepalive connectivity
  2. Verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing
  3. Compare supported HPE Aruba Networking access series and select an appropriately sized 6100-class design if requirements fit
  4. Evaluate a 4100i industrial switching option for temperature, power and physical mounting constraints

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

AOS-CX branding does not imply every feature appears on every switch series. The targeted implementation is to verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing. The deployment succeeds when the chosen SKU and firmware support all mandatory functions in the approved design.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This implementation choice fits a different situation: Two aggregation switches must provide resilient links without presenting a single physical chassis. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive implementation choice is to verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing.

C:

This implementation choice fits a different situation: A small branch needs a fixed access switch for basic VLAN segmentation and modest port counts. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive implementation choice is to verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing.

D:

This implementation choice fits a different situation: An outdoor industrial cabinet requires a ruggedized managed switch with suitable environmental limits. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive implementation choice is to verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing.

Question 51

After implementing the approved change — Verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing — for this scenario: A proposed switch must support particular advanced routing and security features. Which observed result BEST verifies the outcome?

  1. The resulting peer design has supported models and separate failure paths
  2. The design accommodates foreseeable endpoints and has measurable spare capacity
  3. The validated design meets stack member, uplink and redundancy targets
  4. The chosen SKU and firmware support all mandatory functions in the approved design

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The chosen SKU and firmware support all mandatory functions in the approved design. This is the observable acceptance evidence for the decision to verify model-specific AOS-CX feature support, licensing and software compatibility before standardizing. It demonstrates the principle that aOS-CX branding does not imply every feature appears on every switch series.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This verification choice fits a different situation: Two aggregation switches must provide resilient links without presenting a single physical chassis. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive verification choice is to the chosen SKU and firmware support all mandatory functions in the approved design.

B:

This verification choice fits a different situation: A site wants 48 copper access ports but has a plan for substantial future access growth. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive verification choice is to the chosen SKU and firmware support all mandatory functions in the approved design.

C:

This verification choice fits a different situation: A campus needs resilient access aggregation and growth in uplink bandwidth over several closets. It does not resolve the stated failure mode. For this case, the decisive verification choice is to the chosen SKU and firmware support all mandatory functions in the approved design.

Question 52

An HPE Aruba Networking design review examines: A proposed switch must support particular advanced routing and security features. Which technical principle BEST explains the required approach?

  1. Campus switching choices depend on scale and supported stacking options
