Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

To onboard a new UXI in an existing environment with 802.1X authentication, you need to use the UXI app on your smartphone and connect the UXI via Bluetooth. The UXI app allows you to scan the QR code on the UXI sensor and configure its network settings, such as SSID, password, IP address, etc. The Bluetooth connection allows you to communicate with the UXI sensor without requiring any network access or cellular connection. The other options are incorrect because they either do not use the UXI app or do not use Bluetooth.

Question 2 Single choice

Using Aruba best practices what should be enabled for visitor networks where encryption is needed but authentication is not required?

  1. A

    Wi-Fi Protected Access 3 Enterprise

  2. B

    Opportunistic Wireless Encryption

  3. C

    Wired Equivalent Privacy

  4. D

    Open Network Access

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE) is a feature that provides encryption for open wireless networks without requiring authentication. OWE uses an enhanced version of the 4-way handshake to establish a pairwise key between the client and the AP, which is then used to encrypt the wireless traffic using WPA2 or WPA3 protocols. OWE can be used for visitor networks where encryption is needed but authentication is not required.

Question 4 Single choice

With the Aruba CX 6000 24G switch with uplinks of 1/1/25 and what does the switch do when a client port detects a loop and the do-not-disabie parameter is used?

  1. A

    Port status will be validated once status is cleared

  2. B

    An event log message is created.

  3. C

    The network analytics engine is triggered.

  4. D

    Port status led blinks in amber with 100hz.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B. An event log message is created. The do-not-disable parameter is used to prevent the switch from disabling the port when a loop is detected by the loop-protect feature. Instead, the switch will generate an event log message that indicates the port number and the VLAN ID where the loop was detected. The switch will also send a trap to the SNMP manager, if configured 1.
The other options are incorrect because:
A. Port status will not be validated once status is cleared. The port will remain enabled even if a loop is
detected, unless the loop-protect action is changed to tx-disable or tx-rx-disable 1.
C. The network analytics engine will not be triggered by a loop detection. The network analytics engine is a
feature that allows users to monitor and troubleshoot network issues using scripts and agents 2.
D. Port status LED will not blink in amber with 100Hz. The port status LED will indicate the normal port
status, such as link speed and activity, regardless of the loop detection 3.

Question 5 Single choice

You are working on a network where the customer has a dedicated router with redundant Internet connections Tor outbound high-importance real-time audio streams from their datacenter All of this traffic.

originates from a single subnet uses a unique range of UDP ports is required to be routed to the dedicated router

All other traffic should route normally. The SVI for the subnet containing the servers originating the traffic is located on the core routing switch in the datacenter.

What should be configured?

  1. A

    Configure a new OSPF area including both the core routing switch and the dedicated router

  2. B

    Configure a BGP link between the core routing switch and the dedicated router and route filtering.

  3. C

    Configure Policy Based Routing (PBR) on the core routing switch for the VRF with the servers' SVI

  4. D

    Configure a dedicated VRF on the core routing switch and make the dedicated router the default route.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The reason is that PBR allows you to route packets based on policies that match certain criteria, such as source or destination IP addresses, ports, protocols, etc. PBR can also be used to set metrics, next-hop addresses, or tag traffic for different routes.

Question 6 Single choice

In AOS 10. which session-based ACL below will only allow ping from any wired station to wireless clients but will not allow ping from wireless clients to wired stations"? The wired host ingress traffic arrives on a trusted port.

  1. A

    ip access-list session pingFromWired any user any permit

  2. B

    ip access-list session pingFromWired user any svc-icmp deny any any svc-icmp permit

  3. C

    ip access-list session pingFromWired any any svc-icmp permit user any svc-icmp deny

  4. D

    ip access-list session pingFromWired any any svc-icmp deny any user svc-icmp permit

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

A session-based ACL is applied to traffic entering or leaving a port or VLAN based on the direction of the session initiation. To allow ping from any wired station to wireless clients but not vice versa, a session-based ACL should be used to deny icmp echo traffic from any source to any destination, and then permit icmp echo-reply traffic from any source to user destination. The user role represents wireless clients in

Question 7 Single choice

With the Aruba CX 6100 48G switch with uplinks of 1/1/47 and 1/1/48.
how do you automate the process of resuming the port operational state once a loop on a client port is cleared?

  1. A

    Configure int 1/1/1-1/1/52 loop-protect disable timer.

  2. B

    Configure global loop-protect disable timer.

  3. C

    Configure int 1/1/1-1/1/46 loop-protect re-enable-timer.

  4. D

    Configure global loop-protect re-enable-timer.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Loop protection is a feature that detects and prevents loops in layer 2 networks. Loop protection can be enabled on ports, LAGs, or VLANs. When loop protection is enabled, the switch sends periodic loop protection messages on the interface and expects to receive them back. If a loop protection message is received back on the same interface, it indicates a loop and the switch takes an action to disable the interface or block traffic on it3. The loop-protect re-enable-timer command is used to configure the length of time the switch waits before re-enabling an interface that was disabled due to loop detection. The default value is 0, which means that the interface remains disabled until manually re-enabled 3. To automate the process of resuming the port operational state once a loop on a client port is cleared, the loop-protect re-enable-timer command can be used with a non-zero value on the interface range that includes the client ports 3. Therefore, answer C is correct.

Question 9 Single choice

A WLAN architect is reviewing roaming standards. The requirement is to let APs and clients exchange radio measurement information that can help clients make better roaming choices.

Which standard addresses this requirement?

  1. A

    802.11k

  2. B

    802.11r

  3. C

    802.11w

  4. D

    802.3at

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

802.11k is the correct answer because it defines radio resource measurement mechanisms that help clients learn more about the surrounding RF environment, including neighbor-related information. This can improve roaming efficiency by giving the client more useful data when selecting a candidate AP. 802.11r is focused on fast transition keying and reduced reauthentication delay. 802.11w protects management frames, and 802.3at is a PoE standard unrelated to WLAN roaming intelligence.

Question 10 Single choice

What is a primary benefit of BSS coloring?

  1. A

    BSS color tags improve performance by allowing clients on the same channel to share airtime.

  2. B

    BSS color tags are applied to client devices and can reduce the threshold for interference

  3. C

    BSS color tags are applied to Wi-Fi channels and can reduce the threshold for interference

  4. D

    BSS color tags improve security by identifying rogue APs and removing them from the network.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

BSS coloring is a mechanism that helps identify the BSS Basic Service Set. A BSS is a set of interconnected stations that can communicate with each other. BSS can be an independent BSS or infrastructure BSS. An independent BSS is an ad hoc network that does not include APs, whereas the infrastructure BSS consists of an AP and all its associated clients. on the same channel and differentiate them from other BSS on the same channel 12. Each BSS is assigned a color code, which is a 6-bit value that is carried in the PHY header of the Wi-Fi frames 12. By using BSS coloring, the APs and clients can reduce the threshold for interference detection and avoid unnecessary backoff or retransmissions when they detect frames from other BSS with different colors 12. This can improve the spectral efficiency and throughput of the network 12. The other options are incorrect because they do not describe the primary benefit of BSS coloring.
