HP Delta-Aruba Certified Switching Professional Sample Questions:
1. Refer to the exhibit.
The routing switches shown in the exhibit run OSPF on the links between each other. The commander in the Switch-1 VSF fabric goes down. Traffic is disrupted for several seconds.
What should a network administrator do to support a faster failover in a similar situation?
A) Configure echo mode BFD on the VLAN that connects Switch-1 and Switch-2.
B) Add VRRP on the VLAN between Switch-1 and Switch-2.
C) Configure graceful restart, or nonstop OSPF, on Switch-1 and Switch-2, with a proper timer.
D) Create a redundant virtual link between Switch-1 and Switch-2.
2. Refer to the exhibit.
Several interfaces on an AOS-Switch enforce 802.1X to a Radius server at 10.254.202.202. The interface
802.1X settings are shown in the exhibit, and 802.1X is also enabled globally. The security team have added a requirement for port security on the interfaces as well. Before administrators enable port security, which additional step must they complete to prevent issues?
A) Manually add legitimate MAC addresses to the switch authorized MAC list.
B) Enable eavesdropping protection on the interfaces.
C) Enable DHCP snooping on VLAN 20.
D) Set an 802.1X client limit on the interfaces.
3. Refer to the exhibit.
Exhibit 1
Exhibit 2
Traffic between the servers in Area 1 takes a less optimal path rather than the link associated with VLAN
1000, subnet 10.0.0.0/30. Based on the exhibits, why is this the case?
A) OSPF routing switches choose the best intra-area routes based on Area 1 links only.
B) Switch-1 and Switch-2 cannot achieve adjacency on VLAN 1000 due to mismatches.
C) The metric on the VLAN 1000 interface is too low.
D) The link between Switch-1 and Switch-2 has gone down.
4. The security plan for AOS-Switches requires protection from incoming malware traffic generated from a worm-or virus-infected host.
Which feature should be implemented to provide the required protection?
A) connection-rate filtering
B) port security
C) proxy ARP
D) DHCP snooping
5. Network administrators need to track when traffic matches deny entry in an ACL applied to a port. They want the alert to be sent to a syslog server that is already set up to send logs.
What should administrators do to enable alerts?
A) Specify the log option for the ACL entry, and enable SNMP port security traps.
B) Enable ACL debugging, and enable SNMP port security traps.
C) Set the debug destination to session, and enable ACL debugging.
D) Specify the log option for the ACL entry, and enable ACL debugging.
