Question 290

At Silverstone Software, the internal services network team is preparing an office connectivity redesign. The operational constraint is repeatable and observable acceptance checks. The change ticket is marked completed for this reported failure: A multi-site deployment needs consistent switch inventory visibility and security posture across Central-managed groups. Which result BEST demonstrates that this specific issue was resolved?

  1. A role change produces the intended authenticated role and audited access-policy update at the port.
  2. Both peers present the expected gateway behavior and a failover does not break client gateway reachability.
  3. Central displays one intended managed stack and its member inventory with consistent configuration state.
  4. Central views show intended site ownership and equivalent baseline policies across the selected sites.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Central views show intended site ownership and equivalent baseline policies across the selected sites. This is the relevant acceptance observation for the reported issue: A multi-site deployment needs consistent switch inventory visibility and security posture across Central-managed groups. The intended corrective choice is: Standardize authorized group configuration and inventory/site assignments while checking device-level exceptions. At Silverstone Software, this outcome verifies actual operation under repeatable and observable acceptance checks, rather than only a ticket marked complete.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A role change produces the intended authenticated role and audited access-policy update at the port. Such an observation would verify a separate issue: Central reports managed switches but security policy changes in ClearPass are not reflected at ports. It would follow the distinct action: Validate supported ClearPass/RADIUS role delivery and integration policy on the switch interfaces. Here the reported failure is A multi-site deployment needs consistent switch inventory visibility and security posture across Central-managed groups. The decisive result for Silverstone Software must instead be: Central views show intended site ownership and equivalent baseline policies across the selected sites.

B:

Both peers present the expected gateway behavior and a failover does not break client gateway reachability. Such an observation would verify a separate issue: A network team enables VSX active gateway on only one peer and clients see inconsistent default-gateway behavior. It would follow the distinct action: Coordinate the supported VSX active-gateway configuration, addressing and peer consistency. Here the reported failure is A multi-site deployment needs consistent switch inventory visibility and security posture across Central-managed groups. The decisive result for Silverstone Software must instead be: Central views show intended site ownership and equivalent baseline policies across the selected sites.

C:

Central displays one intended managed stack and its member inventory with consistent configuration state. Such an observation would verify a separate issue: An organization wants Aruba Central to manage a pre-existing VSF stack but attempts to enroll each member independently as a separate logical switch. It would follow the distinct action: Onboard the VSF logical stack according to the supported Central conductor/member workflow. Here the reported failure is A multi-site deployment needs consistent switch inventory visibility and security posture across Central-managed groups. The decisive result for Silverstone Software must instead be: Central views show intended site ownership and equivalent baseline policies across the selected sites.

Question 291

At Cedar Point Manufacturing, the industrial campus engineering team is preparing a production-line network refresh. The operational constraint is strict line-stop avoidance. The implementation review flags: A wireless access gateway and wired fabric cannot pass expected AP-management traffic due to missing VLAN/routed handoff. Which action BEST corrects the stated problem?

  1. Standardize authorized group configuration and inventory/site assignments while checking device-level exceptions.
  2. Validate supported ClearPass/RADIUS role delivery and integration policy on the switch interfaces.
  3. Map the wired gateway-facing VLANs, routing and ACL requirements to the supported mobility architecture.
  4. Onboard the VSF logical stack according to the supported Central conductor/member workflow.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Map the wired gateway-facing VLANs, routing and ACL requirements to the supported mobility architecture. This response directly addresses the observed condition: A wireless access gateway and wired fabric cannot pass expected AP-management traffic due to missing VLAN/routed handoff. For Cedar Point Manufacturing during a production-line network refresh, the decisive check is not merely that a configuration was entered: The AP establishes its authorized control-plane connection and client traffic follows the approved path. That evidence connects the proposed correction to measurable forwarding or management behavior.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Standardize authorized group configuration and inventory/site assignments while checking device-level exceptions. That relates to a different fault: A multi-site deployment needs consistent switch inventory visibility and security posture across Central-managed groups. The incident in the scenario is instead: A wireless access gateway and wired fabric cannot pass expected AP-management traffic due to missing VLAN/routed handoff. Changing the unrelated setting does not establish the required repair at Cedar Point Manufacturing; the relevant confirmation would be: The AP establishes its authorized control-plane connection and client traffic follows the approved path.

B:

Validate supported ClearPass/RADIUS role delivery and integration policy on the switch interfaces. That relates to a different fault: Central reports managed switches but security policy changes in ClearPass are not reflected at ports. The incident in the scenario is instead: A wireless access gateway and wired fabric cannot pass expected AP-management traffic due to missing VLAN/routed handoff. Changing the unrelated setting does not establish the required repair at Cedar Point Manufacturing; the relevant confirmation would be: The AP establishes its authorized control-plane connection and client traffic follows the approved path.

D:

Onboard the VSF logical stack according to the supported Central conductor/member workflow. That relates to a different fault: An organization wants Aruba Central to manage a pre-existing VSF stack but attempts to enroll each member independently as a separate logical switch. The incident in the scenario is instead: A wireless access gateway and wired fabric cannot pass expected AP-management traffic due to missing VLAN/routed handoff.

  2. Central displays one intended managed stack and its member inventory with consistent configuration state.
  3. Central views show intended site ownership and equivalent baseline policies across the selected sites.
  4. An authenticated integration receives correct device records and handles failures without manual screen scraping.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The AP establishes its authorized control-plane connection and client traffic follows the approved path.

D:

An authenticated integration receives correct device records and handles failures without manual screen scraping. Such an observation would verify a separate issue: A service orchestration platform must retrieve switch inventory and state but currently scrapes CLI text from terminals. It would follow the distinct action: Use supported management API integrations with scoped credentials and structured data responses. Here the reported failure is A wireless access gateway and wired fabric cannot pass expected AP-management traffic due to missing VLAN/routed handoff. The decisive result for Cedar Point Manufacturing must instead be: The AP establishes its authorized control-plane connection and client traffic follows the approved path.

Question 293
