Question 320

The HPE AOS-CX switching case is: A newly added VLAN has IGMP receivers but no PIM-enabled gateway interface for routed delivery. Select TWO: a corrective switching action and separate evidence that the correction worked. (Select TWO.)

  1. Peer neighbor state reaches the expected adjacency and learned routes survive an approved uplink failure test.
  2. Plan PIM-enabled supported routed interfaces, unicast RPF reachability and rendezvous-point requirements for cross-subnet multicast.
  3. Confirm port optics, fiber or copper type, distance, power and compatible transceiver part numbers before physical installation.
  4. A source and receiver in separate test subnets exchange multicast while RPF and PIM neighbor states match the design.
  5. Use supported IGMP snooping and a proper querier to constrain layer-2 multicast to subscribed receiver ports.

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

The targeted correction for A newly added VLAN has IGMP receivers but no PIM-enabled gateway interface for routed delivery is: Plan PIM-enabled supported routed interfaces, unicast RPF reachability and rendezvous-point requirements for cross-subnet multicast. It reduces the risk that correct IGMP join behavior at a receiver does not create an inter-VLAN multicast path without the appropriate routed multicast control plane.

D:

A separate operational validation for A newly added VLAN has IGMP receivers but no PIM-enabled gateway interface for routed delivery is: A source and receiver in separate test subnets exchange multicast while RPF and PIM neighbor states match the design. It proves intended behavior instead of accepting configuration presence alone.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This alternative concerns ospf area and neighbor formation; its associated risk is: An OSPF neighbor mismatch can leave a physical link working while required prefixes never populate the routing table. The observed case A newly added VLAN has IGMP receivers but no PIM-enabled gateway interface for routed delivery requires the more specific pim sparse-mode and routed multicast control control. The targeted action is: Plan PIM-enabled supported routed interfaces, unicast RPF reachability and rendezvous-point requirements for cross-subnet multicast.

C:

This alternative concerns rack transceiver compatibility and link budget; its associated risk is: Unsupported optic combinations or bad attenuation can cause intermittent errors even when the link initially reports carrier. The observed case A newly added VLAN has IGMP receivers but no PIM-enabled gateway interface for routed delivery requires the more specific pim sparse-mode and routed multicast control control. The targeted action is: Plan PIM-enabled supported routed interfaces, unicast RPF reachability and rendezvous-point requirements for cross-subnet multicast.

E:

This alternative concerns igmp snooping querier and multicast receiver membership; its associated risk is: Without valid membership state, multicast can flood unrelated access ports or fail to reach intended receivers. The observed case A newly added VLAN has IGMP receivers but no PIM-enabled gateway interface for routed delivery requires the more specific pim sparse-mode and routed multicast control control. The targeted action is: Plan PIM-enabled supported routed interfaces, unicast RPF reachability and rendezvous-point requirements for cross-subnet multicast.

Question 321

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer observes: A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes. The corrective solution must keep intended connectivity, segmentation, and operational resilience. Which change best addresses the observed switching requirement?

  1. Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.
  2. Map authenticated user or device attributes to supported HPE Aruba Networking role-based segmentation with verified policy enforcement on the chosen model.
  3. Restrict switch management protocols and administrative roles through approved AAA, SSH and source-policy controls with local recovery access.
  4. Apply supported untrusted port controls for DHCP and ARP so rogue responses and spoofed bindings are rejected without breaking legitimate services.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive observed condition is: A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes. The appropriate switching action is: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate. It addresses the risk that failing open on authentication loss or applying an unreviewed fallback VLAN can grant excess access to unmanaged devices. Confirm with: Authorized identities receive the intended role and unauthorized endpoints remain denied or limited during normal and degraded tests.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This alternative concerns dynamic segmentation roles and enforcement; its associated risk is: Role names without operational enforcement can leave different endpoint classes in an improperly shared security domain. The observed case A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes requires the more specific 802.1x port authentication and radius policy control. The targeted action is: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.

C:

This alternative concerns management plane aaa ssh and least privilege; its associated risk is: An accessible management interface with weak authorization can expose production switching changes to unauthorized staff. The observed case A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes requires the more specific 802.1x port authentication and radius policy control. The targeted action is: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.

D:

This alternative concerns layer 2 protection dhcp snooping and arp inspection; its associated risk is: Untrusted DHCP servers or forged ARP messages can redirect clients or disrupt campus communications. The observed case A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes requires the more specific 802.1x port authentication and radius policy control. The targeted action is: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.

Question 322

An engineer investigates: A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes. What acceptance evidence most directly demonstrates the correction succeeded?

  1. A role-specific traffic matrix proves a permitted user reaches allowed services and a different role is blocked from restricted destinations.
  2. Authorized identities receive the intended role and unauthorized endpoints remain denied or limited during normal and degraded tests.
  3. A controlled rogue DHCP and ARP spoof test is rejected while legitimate authorized server and client traffic succeeds.
  4. Role-based management login tests enforce least privilege and approved emergency access while insecure services remain disabled.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The independent acceptance evidence for A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes is: Authorized identities receive the intended role and unauthorized endpoints remain denied or limited during normal and degraded tests. It tests whether the team has actually implemented: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate. An enabled interface or saved configuration by itself is not evidence of complete service recovery.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This alternative concerns dynamic segmentation roles and enforcement; its associated risk is: Role names without operational enforcement can leave different endpoint classes in an improperly shared security domain. The observed case A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes requires the more specific 802.1x port authentication and radius policy control.

The targeted action is: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.

D:

This alternative concerns management plane aaa ssh and least privilege; its associated risk is: An accessible management interface with weak authorization can expose production switching changes to unauthorized staff. The observed case A managed laptop presents valid EAP credentials but lands in a guest role because its RADIUS policy returns the wrong attributes requires the more specific 802.1x port authentication and radius policy control. The targeted action is: Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.

Question 323

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer observes: An unattended camera cannot run 802.1X and the team adds unrestricted fallback to the entire employee VLAN. The corrective solution must keep intended connectivity, segmentation, and operational resilience. What is the most defensible operational action before closing the network change?

  1. Map authenticated user or device attributes to supported HPE Aruba Networking role-based segmentation with verified policy enforcement on the chosen model.
  2. Restrict switch management protocols and administrative roles through approved AAA, SSH and source-policy controls with local recovery access.
  3. Configure supported wired 802.1X access controls, RADIUS policy and explicit fallback for endpoints that cannot authenticate.
  4. Apply supported untrusted port controls for DHCP and ARP so rogue responses and spoofed bindings are rejected without breaking legitimate services.
