Question 390

At West Clinic, a trunk between two AOS-CX switches loses WLAN guest VLAN traffic after a template update. How should the engineer validate success against the stated requirement?

  1. Verify the phone uses the voice VLAN while the PC remains in the data VLAN.
  2. Run controlled large-payload tests and confirm reliable path MTU behavior.
  3. Generate tagged traffic across all intended VLANs and confirm blocked VLANs remain isolated.
  4. Permit a specifically authorized app and block the matching forbidden traffic.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For West Clinic, the decisive mechanism is Tagged trunk allowlist. A VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration. Generate tagged traffic across all intended VLANs and confirm blocked VLANs remain isolated supplies measurable, case-relevant evidence that the intended behavior actually occurs.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Voice VLAN LLDP-MED, where lLDP-MED can advertise voice-network attributes while the switch enforces separate VLAN policies In the West Clinic case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is a VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration

B:

This is relevant to End-to-end MTU and frames, where a path's effective MTU is limited by the smallest supported segment and encapsulation overhead In the West Clinic case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is a VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration

D:

This is relevant to ACL direction and interface, where stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order In the West Clinic case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is a VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration

Question 391

At West Auditorium, a newly deployed tri-band AP power-limits features when its access-switch closet is near budget. Which implementation directly addresses this campus fault without replacing the wrong component?

  1. Add an authorized management-VRF route and correct source reachability for the target service.
  2. Establish the AP switchport VLAN tagging PoE and DHCP reachability according to the deployment mode.
  3. Supply supported PoE class and verify available per-port and total chassis power budget.
  4. Demonstrate subscription device identity Central assignment and management reachability in the authorized tenant.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For West Auditorium, the decisive mechanism is Access-point PoE capacity. AP radio availability can depend on negotiated power and platform-specific limitations. Supply supported PoE class and verify available per-port and total chassis power budget establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Management VRF reachability, where aOS-CX management VRF and default forwarding VRF may have separate reachability In the West Auditorium case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is aP radio availability can depend on negotiated power and platform-specific limitations

B:

This is relevant to AP uplink physical mapping, where aP service onboarding depends on both physical power and the upstream management network In the West Auditorium case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is aP radio availability can depend on negotiated power and platform-specific limitations

D:

This is relevant to Central device onboarding, where cloud inventory association and device management connectivity are separate onboarding requirements In the West Auditorium case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is aP radio availability can depend on negotiated power and platform-specific limitations

Question 392

At West Clinic, a trunk between two AOS-CX switches loses WLAN guest VLAN traffic after a template update. What safety boundary prevents the same campus failure in future deployments?

  1. Stage ACL changes with console rollback to avoid management lockout.
  2. Do not enable jumbo frames on one device without validating intermediate hops.
  3. Never expand a trunk to all VLANs merely to resolve one missing segment.
  4. Guard against arbitrary untrusted client VLAN tagging on shared ports.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For West Clinic, the decisive mechanism is Tagged trunk allowlist. A VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration. Never expand a trunk to all VLANs merely to resolve one missing segment is an enduring limitation on the operational risk, not simply a one-time passing test.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to ACL direction and interface, where stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order In the West Clinic case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is a VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration

B:

This is relevant to End-to-end MTU and frames, where a path's effective MTU is limited by the smallest supported segment and encapsulation overhead In the West Clinic case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here.
