Question 220

The HPE AOS-CX switching case is: An administrator creates VLAN 120 but never assigns the affected switchport to it. Select TWO: a corrective switching action and separate evidence that the correction worked. (Select TWO.)

  1. Set a consistent MSTP region name, revision and VLAN-to-instance mapping and deliberately place the root where the topology requires.
  2. Form LAG interfaces with consistent LACP settings, eligible member speeds and partner wiring, then evaluate per-flow hashing limitations.
  3. Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.
  4. Two test hosts in the same allowed VLAN exchange traffic while a restricted VLAN host remains separated as designed.
  5. A hop-by-hop tag trace proves required VLANs pass and disallowed VLANs are absent on all uplinks.

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

The targeted correction for An administrator creates VLAN 120 but never assigns the affected switchport to it is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain. It reduces the risk that a correct IP address cannot repair wrong VLAN membership, and access ports in unintended VLANs can expose protected resources.

D:

A separate operational validation for An administrator creates VLAN 120 but never assigns the affected switchport to it is: Two test hosts in the same allowed VLAN exchange traffic while a restricted VLAN host remains separated as designed. It proves intended behavior instead of accepting configuration presence alone.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This alternative concerns mstp configuration and loop control; its associated risk is: A mismatched MSTP region or unintended root can block critical trunks or increase convergence disruption. The observed case An administrator creates VLAN 120 but never assigns the affected switchport to it requires the more specific vlan access port membership and untagged traffic control. The targeted action is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.

B:

This alternative concerns lacp member selection and load distribution; its associated risk is: A partially formed aggregation can strand traffic or produce surprising throughput because a single flow usually hashes to one member. The observed case An administrator creates VLAN 120 but never assigns the affected switchport to it requires the more specific vlan access port membership and untagged traffic control. The targeted action is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.

E:

This alternative concerns vlan trunk tagging and permitted vlan filters; its associated risk is: A missing tagged VLAN on one hop silently isolates clients, while unintended VLAN allowance bridges security domains. The observed case An administrator creates VLAN 120 but never assigns the affected switchport to it requires the more specific vlan access port membership and untagged traffic control. The targeted action is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.

Question 221

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer observes: A new camera joins the management VLAN because a copied access configuration retained the old VLAN ID. The corrective solution must keep intended connectivity, segmentation, and operational resilience. Which implementation or troubleshooting step directly resolves the specific network issue?

  1. Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.
  2. Build a supported VSF stack with a defined conductor, member identities and split-detection design while validating management and data forwarding.
  3. Set a consistent MSTP region name, revision and VLAN-to-instance mapping and deliberately place the root where the topology requires.
  4. Configure and validate tagged VLAN membership across each uplink and consistent native VLAN treatment where required by the topology.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive observed condition is: A new camera joins the management VLAN because a copied access configuration retained the old VLAN ID. The appropriate switching action is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain. It addresses the risk that a correct IP address cannot repair wrong VLAN membership, and access ports in unintended VLANs can expose protected resources. Confirm with: Two test hosts in the same allowed VLAN exchange traffic while a restricted VLAN host remains separated as designed.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This alternative concerns vsf single-logical-switch stack service; its associated risk is: Incorrect member order or split handling can leave orphaned interfaces and interrupt a shared access stack. The observed case A new camera joins the management VLAN because a copied access configuration retained the old VLAN ID requires the more specific vlan access port membership and untagged traffic control. The targeted action is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.

C:

This alternative concerns mstp configuration and loop control; its associated risk is: A mismatched MSTP region or unintended root can block critical trunks or increase convergence disruption.

The targeted action is: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain.

Question 222

An engineer investigates: A new camera joins the management VLAN because a copied access configuration retained the old VLAN ID. Which verification proves the intended operational state rather than just a saved configuration?

  1. Two test hosts in the same allowed VLAN exchange traffic while a restricted VLAN host remains separated as designed.
  2. A hop-by-hop tag trace proves required VLANs pass and disallowed VLANs are absent on all uplinks.
  3. The stack reports one intended logical switch, complete member ports and successful conductor and link-failover behavior.
  4. Spanning-tree show output confirms expected instance membership, root IDs and port forwarding or blocking roles.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The independent acceptance evidence for A new camera joins the management VLAN because a copied access configuration retained the old VLAN ID is: Two test hosts in the same allowed VLAN exchange traffic while a restricted VLAN host remains separated as designed. It tests whether the team has actually implemented: Assign user ports to the intended access VLAN and verify that untagged frames reach the proper broadcast domain. An enabled interface or saved configuration by itself is not evidence of complete service recovery.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This alternative concerns vlan trunk tagging and permitted vlan filters; its associated risk is: A missing tagged VLAN on one hop silently isolates clients, while unintended VLAN allowance bridges security domains.
