Question 160

The HPE AOS-CX switching case is: An operator imports running configuration as a template after local edits and assumes all later changes were automatically incorporated. Select TWO: a corrective switching action and separate evidence that the correction worked. (Select TWO.)

  1. Use the supported UI group and MultiEdit workflow or template-based configuration consistently with each group's configuration mode and device support.
  2. Assign AOS-CX switches to supported Central groups with matching device identities, subscription and intended group configuration method before configuration push.
  3. A test change appears in the intended group method and on the switch running configuration, with drift identified before broader rollout.
  4. A configuration diff distinguishes intentional site exceptions from unintended drift and resolves the latter through an approved workflow.
  5. Confirm the effective running configuration, persistence on reboot and approved backup before saving or upgrading an AOS-CX switch.

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

The targeted correction for An operator imports running configuration as a template after local edits and assumes all later changes were automatically incorporated is: Use the supported UI group and MultiEdit workflow or template-based configuration consistently with each group's configuration mode and device support. It reduces the risk that mixing template and UI assumptions can leave changes unapplied, unexpectedly overridden or inconsistent across devices.

C:

A separate operational validation for An operator imports running configuration as a template after local edits and assumes all later changes were automatically incorporated is: A test change appears in the intended group method and on the switch running configuration, with drift identified before broader rollout. It proves intended behavior instead of accepting configuration presence alone.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This alternative concerns central group onboarding and serial inventory; its associated risk is: A switch placed in the wrong group can receive incorrect VLANs or fail provisioning because its hardware or mode is incompatible. The observed case An operator imports running configuration as a template after local edits and assumes all later changes were automatically incorporated requires the more specific central ui multiedit versus template ownership control. The targeted action is: Use the supported UI group and MultiEdit workflow or template-based configuration consistently with each group's configuration mode and device support.

D:

This alternative concerns central group override and compliance reconciliation; its associated risk is: Retained local overrides can silently defeat approved group security or uplink settings across otherwise identical branches. The observed case An operator imports running configuration as a template after local edits and assumes all later changes were automatically incorporated requires the more specific central ui multiedit versus template ownership control. The targeted action is: Use the supported UI group and MultiEdit workflow or template-based configuration consistently with each group's configuration mode and device support.

E:

This alternative concerns running versus startup configuration and controlled save; its associated risk is: A working session can vanish after a restart, while inadvertently saved emergency settings can persist outside the change window. The observed case An operator imports running configuration as a template after local edits and assumes all later changes were automatically incorporated requires the more specific central ui multiedit versus template ownership control. The targeted action is: Use the supported UI group and MultiEdit workflow or template-based configuration consistently with each group's configuration mode and device support.

Question 161

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer observes: A newly migrated switch retains an old management ACL as a device override even though its destination group defines a new policy. The corrective solution must keep intended connectivity, segmentation, and operational resilience. Which change best addresses the observed switching requirement?

  1. Assign AOS-CX switches to supported Central groups with matching device identities, subscription and intended group configuration method before configuration push.
  2. Configure an SVI with a valid VLAN, IP prefix and forwarding state on a supported AOS-CX platform to route traffic between authorized networks.
  3. Inspect group-level intended configuration, device-specific overrides and compliance status before treating a switch as centrally standardized.
  4. Use the supported UI group and MultiEdit workflow or template-based configuration consistently with each group's configuration mode and device support.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The decisive observed condition is: A newly migrated switch retains an old management ACL as a device override even though its destination group defines a new policy. The appropriate switching action is: Inspect group-level intended configuration, device-specific overrides and compliance status before treating a switch as centrally standardized. It addresses the risk that retained local overrides can silently defeat approved group security or uplink settings across otherwise identical branches. Confirm with: A configuration diff distinguishes intentional site exceptions from unintended drift and resolves the latter through an approved workflow.

B:

This alternative concerns svi addressing and inter-vlan routing; its associated risk is: Duplicate gateways or mismatched prefix lengths can make hosts reachable only locally or create asymmetric routing. The observed case A newly migrated switch retains an old management ACL as a device override even though its destination group defines a new policy requires the more specific central group override and compliance reconciliation control. The targeted action is: Inspect group-level intended configuration, device-specific overrides and compliance status before treating a switch as centrally standardized.

D:

Question 162

An engineer investigates: A newly migrated switch retains an old management ACL as a device override even though its destination group defines a new policy. What acceptance evidence most directly demonstrates the correction succeeded?

  1. Routing and ARP or neighbor tests prove two permitted VLANs reach the intended gateways and return paths.
  2. A test change appears in the intended group method and on the switch running configuration, with drift identified before broader rollout.
  3. The inventory matches a registered switch, selected management group and applied expected configuration without unintended overrides.
  4. A configuration diff distinguishes intentional site exceptions from unintended drift and resolves the latter through an approved workflow.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The independent acceptance evidence for A newly migrated switch retains an old management ACL as a device override even though its destination group defines a new policy is: A configuration diff distinguishes intentional site exceptions from unintended drift and resolves the latter through an approved workflow. It tests whether the team has actually implemented: Inspect group-level intended configuration, device-specific overrides and compliance status before treating a switch as centrally standardized. An enabled interface or saved configuration by itself is not evidence of complete service recovery.
