Question 580
The HPE AOS-CX switching case is: A team declares a 2x10G uplink defective because one TCP session never exceeds 10G. Select TWO: a corrective switching action and separate evidence that the correction worked. (Select TWO.)
Explanation
Correct Answers
The targeted correction for A team declares a 2x10G uplink defective because one TCP session never exceeds 10G is: Evaluate per-flow LACP hashing, active member state and traffic mix before expecting additive throughput for every single transfer. It reduces the risk that a single large flow may remain on one link despite healthy bundle capacity and can coexist with underused members.
A separate operational validation for A team declares a 2x10G uplink defective because one TCP session never exceeds 10G is: Multi-flow and single-flow tests explain the observed member utilization according to the configured hashing method. It proves intended behavior instead of accepting configuration presence alone.
Incorrect Answers
This alternative concerns mtu consistency and large-packet forwarding; its associated risk is: A mismatch can create fragmentation or loss and cause application timeouts even while basic ping succeeds. The observed case A team declares a 2x10G uplink defective because one TCP session never exceeds 10G requires the more specific lag hash distribution and elephant flows control. The targeted action is: Evaluate per-flow LACP hashing, active member state and traffic mix before expecting additive throughput for every single transfer.
This alternative concerns duplex mismatch negotiation and retransmissions; its associated risk is: A speed or duplex mismatch can cause errors and poor throughput although packets intermittently pass. The observed case A team declares a 2x10G uplink defective because one TCP session never exceeds 10G requires the more specific lag hash distribution and elephant flows control. The targeted action is: Evaluate per-flow LACP hashing, active member state and traffic mix before expecting additive throughput for every single transfer.
This alternative concerns end-node and application-path performance differentiation; its associated risk is: Local client faults and server slowness can resemble network degradation, causing disruptive configuration changes that do not help. The observed case A team declares a 2x10G uplink defective because one TCP session never exceeds 10G requires the more specific lag hash distribution and elephant flows control. The targeted action is: Evaluate per-flow LACP hashing, active member state and traffic mix before expecting additive throughput for every single transfer.
