Question 610

At Convention Center, a contractor authenticates correctly but receives an employee DHCP subnet. Which configuration change best fits the network requirement and observed behavior?

  1. Use approved MAC authentication with profiling and strictly limited authorization.
  2. Return supported VLAN or role attributes that match network enforcement configuration.
  3. Configure appropriate RADIUS failover and tested timeout/retry settings.
  4. Map the returned VLAN attributes to an existing permitted switch VLAN and routed scope.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

For Convention Center, the decisive mechanism is Dynamic VLAN on wired port. Dynamic VLAN assignment requires compatible RADIUS results and local switch VLAN support. Map the returned VLAN attributes to an existing permitted switch VLAN and routed scope establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to MAB for headless IoT, where mAB is a weaker fallback identity mechanism than certificate-based 802.1X In the Convention Center case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is dynamic VLAN assignment requires compatible RADIUS results and local switch VLAN support

B:

This is relevant to ClearPass enforcement attributes, where an Access-Accept alone does not guarantee the intended authorization role was applied In the Convention Center case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is dynamic VLAN assignment requires compatible RADIUS results and local switch VLAN support

C:

This is relevant to RADIUS authorization timeout, where authentication server reachability and retry order influence network-admission decisions In the Convention Center case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is dynamic VLAN assignment requires compatible RADIUS results and local switch VLAN support

Question 611

At North Residence, an outage makes ClearPass unavailable and a hospital phone cannot reach the emergency calling service. Which change-management constraint best guards against recurrence?

  1. Maintain intentional restricted access for unmanaged endpoint classes.
  2. Avoid shrinking timers purely for perceived security without measuring disruption.
  3. Keep emergency break-glass administration documented and monitored.
  4. Require explicit approval for any fail-open access and monitor fallback use.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

For North Residence, the decisive mechanism is Critical authentication fallback. Critical authorization controls how a port behaves if authentication service cannot be reached. Require explicit approval for any fail-open access and monitor fallback use is an enduring limitation on the operational risk, not simply a one-time passing test.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Wired 802.1X port access, where 802.1X authorizes port traffic through EAPOL and the authentication server decision In the North Residence case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is critical authorization controls how a port behaves if authentication service cannot be reached

B:

This is relevant to Supplicant reauthentication intervals, where wired reauthentication intervals can affect session continuity if handshake timing is inadequate In the North Residence case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is critical authorization controls how a port behaves if authentication service cannot be reached

C:

This is relevant to TACACS+ admin AAA distinction, where administrative command authorization and client-port 802.1X solve different AAA problems In the North Residence case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is critical authorization controls how a port behaves if authentication service cannot be reached

Question 612

At Central Hall, a secured OSPF adjacency drops after one core switch changes its authentication key. Which configuration change best fits the network requirement and observed behavior?

  1. Configure matching supported OSPF authentication settings on intended neighbors.
  2. Enable matching OSPFv3 area/interface settings with valid IPv6 transport reachability.
  3. Use supported ECMP and account for session hash distribution across eligible paths.
  4. Configure supported VRRP with consistent virtual IP and safe priority/failover behavior.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

For Central Hall, the decisive mechanism is OSPF neighbor authentication. OSPF authentication protects adjacency formation against unauthorized peers. Configure matching supported OSPF authentication settings on intended neighbors establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is relevant to IPv6 OSPFv3 adjacency, where oSPFv3 exchanges IPv6 routing information through a separately configured protocol process In the Central Hall case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is oSPF authentication protects adjacency formation against unauthorized peers

C:

This is relevant to ECMP next-hop selection, where eCMP typically spreads flows over equal-cost next hops, not necessarily one flow packet by packet In the Central Hall case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is oSPF authentication protects adjacency formation against unauthorized peers

D:

This is relevant to First-hop gateway election, where VRRP abstracts the default gateway across eligible routing devices In the Central Hall case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is oSPF authentication protects adjacency formation against unauthorized peers

Question 613

At Transit Operations Center, an AOS-CX template pushes the same management gateway to two differently addressed branches. Which controlled acceptance test demonstrates the required behavior?

  1. Capture a test client flow at its designated wired VLAN or gateway policy point.
  2. See the AP obtain correct management addressing and report online in Central.
  3. Prove distinct management addresses and required VLAN settings on two test devices.
  4. Confirm both intended members distribute traffic and single-member loss is tolerated.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For Transit Operations Center, the decisive mechanism is Switch template variables. Template-based provisioning must resolve per-device parameters before switch configuration. Prove distinct management addresses and required VLAN settings on two test devices supplies measurable, case-relevant evidence that the intended behavior actually occurs.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Bridge versus tunneled WLAN traffic, where bridge SSIDs forward locally; tunneled SSIDs use the gateway data path for policy In the Transit Operations Center case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is template-based provisioning must resolve per-device parameters before switch configuration

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 Transit Operations Center case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is template-based provisioning must resolve per-device parameters before switch configuration

D:

This is relevant to LACP uplink provisioning, where lACP forms one logical bundle only when peers agree on aggregation parameters In the Transit Operations Center case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is template-based provisioning must resolve per-device parameters before switch configuration

Question 614

At Athletics Complex, a branch AP has 2.4-GHz saturation but laptop clients can use stronger 5-GHz service. Which controlled configuration is most likely to restore the required service?

  1. Activate suitable band-steering behavior after checking client compatibility and RF coverage.
  2. Adjust mounting antenna orientation and power using active RF measurements.
  3. Set up guest authentication flow and role transitions with appropriate enforcement.
  4. Apply supported clustered gateway configuration with capacity and software-version compatibility.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

For Athletics Complex, the decisive mechanism is Band steering behavior. Band steering guides capable clients toward suitable bands but client behavior still matters. Enable suitable band-steering behavior after checking client compatibility and RF coverage establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is relevant to AP power and cell geometry, where aP placement and transmit power affect cell coverage and roaming boundaries In the Athletics Complex case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is band steering guides capable clients toward suitable bands but client behavior still matters

C:

This is relevant to Guest portal and role, where captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls In the Athletics Complex case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is band steering guides capable clients toward suitable bands but client behavior still matters

D:

This is relevant to Gateway cluster resiliency, where tunneled service resilience requires usable gateway capacity and working AP tunnels In the Athletics Complex case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is band steering guides capable clients toward suitable bands but client behavior still matters

Question 615

At Research Hub, a classroom installer connects two switch access ports with one short patch cable. Which TWO responses together provide a direct implementation and a continuing safeguard for the stated risk? Select TWO answers.

  1. Advertise approved LLDP-MED voice VLAN and separate PC data access classification.
  2. Avoid indiscriminately shutting campus trunks when edge loop detection fires.
  3. Do not enable jumbo frames on one device without validating intermediate hops.
  4. Enable appropriate loop protection and STP behavior on eligible access ports.

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

This is the continuing risk-control element for Research Hub. Avoid indiscriminately shutting campus trunks when edge loop detection fires prevents a future regression or unauthorized relaxation of the repair; it complements, rather than replaces, the implementation.

D:

This is the implementation element for the Research Hub case: Loop protection isolates unintended forwarding cycles at Layer 2. The specific action Enable appropriate loop protection and STP behavior on eligible access ports addresses the stated fault; the question also requires a persistent risk control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This may be a configuration step for Voice VLAN LLDP-MED: LLDP-MED can advertise voice-network attributes while the switch enforces separate VLAN policies. It does not resolve the Loop detection protection requirement in Research Hub and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is loop protection isolates unintended forwarding cycles at Layer 2

C:

This may be an ongoing precaution for End-to-end MTU and frames: A path's effective MTU is limited by the smallest supported segment and encapsulation overhead. It does not resolve the Loop detection protection requirement in Research Hub and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is loop protection isolates unintended forwarding cycles at Layer 2

Question 616

At Main Data Center, a distribution-to-access link sees unexpected DHCP requests after native VLAN numbers diverge. Which controlled configuration is most likely to restore the required service?

  1. Synchronize native VLAN configuration and avoid using native VLAN for untrusted access where possible.
  2. Apply the appropriate permit/deny order and direction on the data-path interface.
  3. Advertise approved LLDP-MED voice VLAN and separate PC data access classification.
  4. Synchronize MTU and encapsulation requirements across the complete supported forwarding path.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

For Main Data Center, the decisive mechanism is Native VLAN mismatch. A native VLAN defines forwarding for untagged frames on a VLAN-aware trunk. Align native VLAN configuration and avoid using native VLAN for untrusted access where possible establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is relevant to ACL direction and interface, where stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order In the Main Data Center case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is a native VLAN defines forwarding for untagged frames on a VLAN-aware trunk

C:

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 Main Data Center case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is a native VLAN defines forwarding for untagged frames on a VLAN-aware trunk

D:

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 Main Data Center case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is a native VLAN defines forwarding for untagged frames on a VLAN-aware trunk

Question 617

At Hillcrest Campus, a tagged access uplink forwards a newly added IoT VLAN into an unapproved trunk VLAN. Which investigation most directly explains why the intended service is not working?

  1. Examine Access-Request policy trace and certificate-validation logs.
  2. Examine authorized port VLAN DHCP DISCOVER/OFFER and relay counters.
  3. Examine client effective VLAN AP forward mode tagged frames and DHCP lease.
  4. Examine FCS CRC counters optical levels and negotiated mode.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For Hillcrest Campus, the decisive mechanism is Wrong VLAN mapping. WLAN-to-wired mapping errors can appear as a DHCP or authorization defect. Inspect client effective VLAN AP forward mode tagged frames and DHCP lease is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to RADIUS Access-Reject root cause, where an explicit RADIUS reject can come from credential validation or authorization policy In the Hillcrest Campus case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is wLAN-to-wired mapping errors can appear as a DHCP or authorization defect

B:

This is relevant to DHCP address-acquisition failure, where network authorization and DHCP allocation are separate stages requiring their own diagnostics In the Hillcrest Campus case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is wLAN-to-wired mapping errors can appear as a DHCP or authorization defect

D:

This is relevant to Physical-link errors, where layer 1/2 corruption can degrade packets even though link status remains up In the Hillcrest Campus case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is wLAN-to-wired mapping errors can appear as a DHCP or authorization defect

Question 618

At Hillcrest Campus, two campus edge devices show TCP port 179 open but BGP never reaches Established. Which AOS-CX or Aruba networking design choice resolves this specific dependency?

  1. Enable matching OSPFv3 area/interface settings with valid IPv6 transport reachability.
  2. Restore an authorized default next hop and deliberate route preferences.
  3. Install a valid static route with a resolvable next hop and appropriate administrative distance.
  4. Configure correct local/remote BGP AS and reachable neighbor address.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

For Hillcrest Campus, the decisive mechanism is BGP neighbor ASN mismatch. BGP adjacency requires consistent peer addressing and ASN relationships. Configure correct local/remote BGP AS and reachable neighbor address establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to IPv6 OSPFv3 adjacency, where oSPFv3 exchanges IPv6 routing information through a separately configured protocol process In the Hillcrest Campus case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is bGP adjacency requires consistent peer addressing and ASN relationships

B:

This is relevant to Default route selection, where default route 0.0.0.0/0 applies when no more specific IPv4 route matches In the Hillcrest Campus case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is bGP adjacency requires consistent peer addressing and ASN relationships

C:

This is relevant to Static route next hop, where a static route only forwards as intended when its next hop can be resolved In the Hillcrest Campus case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is bGP adjacency requires consistent peer addressing and ASN relationships

Question 619

At Transit Operations Center, a voice handset needs faster discovery of neighboring BSSIDs while walking floors. Which observation most directly isolates the likely cause before any change?

  1. Cross-check spatial signal maps channel overlap and client roaming behavior.
  2. Examine portal redirect RADIUS or guest authorization events and the effective client role.
  3. Examine cluster health tunnel termination count CPU and per-member forwarding.
  4. Examine neighbor report frames and candidate AP visibility during a roam.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

For Transit Operations Center, the decisive mechanism is 802.11k neighbor information. 802.11k provides radio-resource neighbor information to assist client decisions. Inspect neighbor report frames and candidate AP visibility during a roam is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to AP power and cell geometry, where aP placement and transmit power affect cell coverage and roaming boundaries In the Transit Operations Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is 802.11k provides radio-resource neighbor information to assist client decisions

B:

This is relevant to Guest portal and role, where captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls In the Transit Operations Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is 802.11k provides radio-resource neighbor information to assist client decisions

C:

This is relevant to Gateway cluster resiliency, where tunneled service resilience requires usable gateway capacity and working AP tunnels In the Transit Operations Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is 802.11k provides radio-resource neighbor information to assist client decisions

Question 620

At Research Hub, a student housing WLAN adds many tenant SSIDs and management airtime becomes excessive. Which implementation directly addresses this campus fault without replacing the wrong component?

  1. Perform an active site survey covering attenuation interference and realistic client density.
  2. Consolidate unnecessary WLAN profiles and use targeted zones when appropriate.
  3. Investigate noise/interference and target adequate SNR rather than raising AP power blindly.
  4. Apply an RF plan with reasonable channel reuse and channel width for expected density.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

For Research Hub, the decisive mechanism is Excessive SSID beacon overhead. Each advertised SSID sends management traffic that consumes shared airtime. Consolidate unnecessary WLAN profiles and use targeted zones when appropriate establishes the needed configuration in the case rather than merely measuring a symptom.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to RF predictive versus active survey, where predictive RF planning does not replace measured real-world attenuation and utilization In the Research Hub case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is each advertised SSID sends management traffic that consumes shared airtime

C:

This is relevant to RSSI and SNR differentiation, where sNR accounts for interference floor; RSSI alone does not predict useful wireless throughput In the Research Hub case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is each advertised SSID sends management traffic that consumes shared airtime

D:

This is relevant to Co-channel contention, where co-channel APs share contention airtime even if their signals are individually strong In the Research Hub case, Changing that neighboring feature does not implement the missing function. The specific mechanism is each advertised SSID sends management traffic that consumes shared airtime
