You need to troubleshoot an Aruba CX 6300F switch that fails to boot correctly. Select the option that allows you to access the switch and see the boot options available for OS images and ServiceOS.

  1. USB-C console port
  2. RJ-45 console port
  3. USB-A console port
  4. Omgmt port using SSH

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

To troubleshoot an Aruba CX 6300F switch that is failing to boot correctly, you would typically use the USB-C console port. This port allows you to connect to the switch directly with a console cable and access the boot loader menu, where you can see the available OS images and the ServiceOS for recovery and troubleshooting purposes.



When using the network check page in Central, what kind of tests can you run on switches? (Select two.)

  1. Speed test (iperf)
  2. Ping test
  3. A full hardware check, including a heavy memory check
  4. LED-check.
  5. PoE-check

Answer(s): B,E

Explanation:

In Aruba Central's network check page, you can run several diagnostic tests on switches. A ping test is a common utility to check the reachability of a host on an IP network. A Power over Ethernet (PoE) check can help verify the power delivery status to PoE-capable devices. These tests are crucial for ensuring connectivity and power supply to network devices



The customer requires two Aruba CX 6200F 48G switches to be connected to each other with a distance of 80m/252ft between wiring closets. Switches need to have reservation for VSF expansion with ring topology in each cabinet.

What is a valid configuration for a redundant link-aggregation port configuration?

  1. Ports 1/1/49 and 1/1/50 with SFP28 for LAG
  2. Ports 1/1/47 and 1/1/48 for LAG
  3. Ports 1/1/1 and 1/1/2 for LAG
  4. Ports 1/1/51 and 1/1/52 with SFP+ for LAG

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

For an 80m distance between wiring closets, using SFP+ transceivers is appropriate as they can support longer distances than standard copper interfaces. Ports 1/1/51 and 1/1/52 are typically reserved for uplinks on Aruba CX 6200F 48G switches and can support SFP+ transceivers, making them suitable for a redundant link-aggregation port configuration.



What is an advantage of using Layer 2 MAC authentication?

  1. MAC allow lists are easily maintained over time.
  2. No setup is required on the client.
  3. It matches user names to MAC address.
  4. MAC identifiers are hard to spoof.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The advantage of Layer 2 MAC authentication is that it does not require any setup or configuration on the client device. The network devices (like switches or access points) perform the authentication automatically based on the MAC address of the device when it tries to connect to the network.
