HP Delta-Aruba Certified Switching Professional Sample Questions:

Question #1
A network administrator sets up MAC-Auth and captive portal to Aruba ClearPass on AOS-Switches. The solution seems to work for most guests. However, some guests open their browsers and are not redirected to the captive portal.
How should the administrator address the likely cause of the issue?

A. Set the RADIUS server time window to 0 because some guest computers likely have the incorrect system time.
B. Replace expired certificates on the switches and set their usage to captive portal since some guests have an HTTPS homepage.
C. Reconfigure the captive portal URL hash key on some of the switches, which likely have the wrong password.
D. Replace MAC-Auth on switch ports with Web-Auth because this authentication method offers more reliability with captive portal.

Question #2
A company requires AOS-Switches at the campus core. The switches:
* Will act as the default gateways for several campus VLANs
* Must provide redundancy for their services and tolerate the loss of a link or an entire switch
* Must recover from the failure of one of the switches within a second or less VRRP and MSTP are proposed to meet these requirements. What is an issue with this proposal?

A. VRRP does not interoperate with MSTP.

B. It blocks the traffic, and it sends an SNMP trap.
C. It blocks the traffic, but sends no SNMP trap.
D. It disables the port, but sends no SNMP trap.

Question #4
Refer to the exhibit.

Endpoints in VLAN 2 connect directly to this switch. These devices should only be able to send DHCP, DNS, HTTP, and HTTPS traffic. However, they are able to send any traffic. Based on the exhibit, what is the issue?

A. The ACL is applied in the wrong direction
B. The ACL lacks a deny ip any any statement at the end
C. The switch does not have an IP address on VLAN 2
D. The name of the ACL applied to VLAN 2 is incorrect
