QUESTION 2

You are delivering a replacement collapsed core network proposal to the customer where the core switches will have the switched virtual interfaces (SVI) configured. The customer is not sure that a VSX pair of switches will be able to act as the spanning tree root in their environment.

Which options are true about spanning tree and VSX that will help assure the customer that a VSX pair of switches are appropriate for a collapsed core? (Choose two.)

A
The ISL between VSX switches is never part of STP domain and doesn't send or receive BPDUs on this link and this ensures the "operational primary" and "operational secondary" switches are deterministic to other dual-attached switches.
B
Both VSX switches are configured with the system MAC and then create unique STP bridge-IDs to identify "operational primary" and "operational secondary" for proper STP functioning.
C
HPE Aruba Networking VSX switches support either multiple spanning tree (MSTP) or rapid per VLAN spanning tree (RPVST).
D
When LAG interfaces are configured on a VSX pair of switches, both switches are "operational primary" and ensure active-active LAG operation equally.
E
The primary VSX switch is the spanning tree root and the default behavior is the links on the secondary VSX switch are blocked with sub-millisecond failover assured by VSX active-gateway.

Correct Option: A,C

QUESTION 3

What is one use case for designing a 2-tier campus LAN instead of using a 3-tier?

A
Cross-campus traffic has grown beyond the capacity of a single collapsed core.
B
The campus has small buildings with only a few wiring closets.
C
Access aggregation points are not scaling to meet traffic demands.
D
The network has grown beyond a few building aggregation points.

Correct Option: B

QUESTION 4

You are responding to a customer’s Request for Proposal (RFP) for a new network infrastructure solution. The RFP outlines the customer’s desired features and technical outcomes but leaves several important design details unspecified.

At this stage in the proposal process, you are tasked with documenting the assumptions you’ve made in order to complete your design and address gaps in the RFP. These assumptions should reflect reasonable expectations that help guide the customer’s understanding of the solution and identify areas where further clarification may be needed.

What is a valid example of assumptions that should be presented to the customer in your RFP response?

A
The customer's budget has already been approved to fully fund the proposed solution.
B
The customer's technical staff is fully capable of providing ongoing support for the proposed solution.
C
All required vendor equipment will be available in time to meet the customer’s requested project schedule.
D
Adequate space and power are available to rack and commission the proposed equipment.

Correct Option: D

QUESTION 5

Which licenses are needed in order to use the UXI Client on Zebra Devices? (Choose two.)

A
UXI Cloud Subscription
B
Wireless Insights
C
UXI Agent Subscription
D
UXI LTE Subscription

Correct Option: A,C

QUESTION 6

You are designing a secure onboarding solution for a customer’s enterprise network. The plan includes using HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) Onboard to simplify device on boarding and enforce security policies.

What critical design considerations and features recommendations should be addressed in your proposal to ensure a smooth and effective implementation? (Choose two.)

A
With OpsRamp EST integration with Onboard you can issue and manage RadSec certificates on third-party NADs using ClearPass exchange.
B
Onboard CAs EST server can issue and automatically renew certificates for HPE Aruba Networking Unified Infrastructure devices.
C
Onboard does not support acting as a Registration Authority in order to proxy certificate signing requests to an external CA.
D
When hosting multiple PKI Certificate Authorities using ClearPass, the Onboard feature requires a Foundation plus Security subscription.

Correct Option: B,D

QUESTION 7

Your organization is planning to implement HPE Aruba Networking User Experience Insight (UXI) sensors to enhance network visibility and proactive troubleshooting across your enterprise environment. The goal is to continuously monitor user experience, application performance, and network health across wired, wireless, and WAN segments.

Which capabilities accurately describe the features and requirements of HPE Aruba Networking UXI sensors? (Choose two.)

A
UXI sensors deliver 24/7 cloud-based monitoring and testing of network performance across wired, wireless, and WAN environments.
B
UXI sensors depend entirely on passive traffic monitoring and do not generate any active synthetic test traffic for network assessment.
C
The UXI Linux agent matches the features of physical sensors but with reduced performance and will require a separate subscription.
D
