Question 530

The HPE AOS-CX switching case is: A campus video receiver stops seeing multicast after the VLAN's last IGMP querier disappears. Which TWO choices together provide the targeted remedy and independent validation? (Select TWO.)

  1. Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer.
  2. Correlate time-synchronized switch logs, counters and recent configuration changes before replacing hardware or changing protocols.
  3. A known receiver gets the stream and unsubscribed ports remain protected after the correct membership or routing fix.
  4. Compare intended configuration, startup state, Central templates and recent changes before restoring only the approved affected scope.
  5. All expected members and ports rejoin the intended VSF inventory with preserved interface roles and healthy conductor election.

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

The targeted correction for A campus video receiver stops seeing multicast after the VLAN's last IGMP querier disappears is: Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer. It reduces the risk that enabling more multicast flooding without diagnosis can overload unrelated VLANs and still fail inter-subnet delivery.

C:

A separate operational validation for A campus video receiver stops seeing multicast after the VLAN's last IGMP querier disappears is: A known receiver gets the stream and unsubscribed ports remain protected after the correct membership or routing fix. It proves intended behavior instead of accepting configuration presence alone.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This alternative concerns logs event timeline and interface counters remediation; its associated risk is: A remediation based on uncorrelated symptoms can fix a side effect while the actual trigger remains active. The observed case A campus video receiver stops seeing multicast after the VLAN's last IGMP querier disappears requires the more specific multicast join and routed multicast fault recovery control. The targeted action is: Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer.

D:

This alternative concerns configuration drift and restore after an outage; its associated risk is: Blind restoration from a stale backup may overwrite healthy newer policies and leave a hidden repeat-failure trigger. The observed case A campus video receiver stops seeing multicast after the VLAN's last IGMP querier disappears requires the more specific multicast join and routed multicast fault recovery control. The targeted action is: Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer.

E:

This alternative concerns vsf membership and conductor recovery plan; its associated risk is: Unplanned zeroization or member readdition can erase interface configuration and extend an access outage. The observed case A campus video receiver stops seeing multicast after the VLAN's last IGMP querier disappears requires the more specific multicast join and routed multicast fault recovery control. The targeted action is: Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer.

Question 531

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer observes: An engineer enables only snooping for a source and destination located in different routed buildings. The corrective solution must keep intended connectivity, segmentation, and operational resilience. What is the most defensible operational action before closing the network change?

  1. Correlate time-synchronized switch logs, counters and recent configuration changes before replacing hardware or changing protocols.
  2. Compare intended configuration, startup state, Central templates and recent changes before restoring only the approved affected scope.

  2. Compare intended configuration, startup state, Central templates and recent changes before restoring only the approved affected scope.
  3. Use route tables, interface IPs, neighbor state and policy output to repair the specific missing or incorrect Layer 3 adjacency or prefix.
  4. Correlate time-synchronized switch logs, counters and recent configuration changes before replacing hardware or changing protocols.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The decisive observed condition is: A PIM source tree fails because reverse-path unicast routing points toward the wrong upstream link.

Question 534

An engineer investigates: A PIM source tree fails because reverse-path unicast routing points toward the wrong upstream link. What network observation should the team require before approving completion?

  1. A known receiver gets the stream and unsubscribed ports remain protected after the correct membership or routing fix.
  2. A before/after event timeline and counters show the original fault stopped with no unexpected new alerts.
  3. The neighbor reaches its designed state, intended routes appear in the correct VRF and bidirectional probes succeed.
  4. A reconciled configuration diff and focused service tests prove only intended changes were recovered and recorded.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The independent acceptance evidence for A PIM source tree fails because reverse-path unicast routing points toward the wrong upstream link is: A known receiver gets the stream and unsubscribed ports remain protected after the correct membership or routing fix. It tests whether the team has actually implemented: Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer.

Question 535

An HPE Aruba Networking engineer observes: A support analyst floods multicast to all access ports instead of checking whether membership entries are aging out. The corrective solution must keep intended connectivity, segmentation, and operational resilience. Which response best satisfies the technical requirement without disrupting unrelated traffic?

  1. Recover missing VSF members using supported identity, link, conductor and software checks rather than resetting the logical stack without evidence.
  2. Diagnose failures with a reproducible path from endpoint addressing through port, VLAN, gateway, routing and application dependency.
  3. Separate IGMP snooping, querier state, PIM neighbor and RPF checks to find multicast loss at its real layer.
