Question 1

AtubaOS-CX switches are acting as Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) Tunnel Endpoints (VTEPs) WITHOUT Ethernet VPN (EVPN).

Does this correctly describe how the VTEPs handle VXLAN traffic forwarding?

Solution: VTEPs that use headend replication forward broadcasts as unicast packets to each VTEP in the same VNI.



Answer : A

Headend replication is a method of handling BUM traffic in VXLAN networks without EVPN, where the ingress VTEP replicates every BUM packet and sends them as a separate unicast to the remote egress VTEPs in the same VNI1. This avoids the need for multicast routing in the underlay network, but it can increase the load on the ingress VTEP. Therefore, this correctly describes how the VTEPs handle VXLAN traffic forwarding without EVPN.


Question 2

AtubaOS-CX switches are acting as Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) Tunnel Endpoints (VTEPs) WITHOUT Ethernet VPN (EVPN).

Does this correctly describe how the VTEPs handle VXLAN traffic forwarding?

Solution: VTEPs that use headend replication forward broadcast as multicast to each VTEP in the same VNI.



Answer : A

VXLAN is a tunneling protocol that encapsulates layer 2 traffic over an IP network using VXLAN Network Identifiers (VNIs) to identify different layer 2 segments. VXLAN Tunnel Endpoints (VTEPs) are devices that perform the encapsulation and decapsulation of VXLAN packets. VTEPs can use different methods to handle broadcast, unknown unicast, and multicast (BUM) traffic within a VNI.One of these methods is headend replication, which means that the VTEP that receives a BUM packet replicates it and sends it as a unicast to each remote VTEP in the same VNI1. This method does not require multicast routing in the underlay network, but it can increase the load on the ingress VTEP. Therefore, this correctly describes how the VTEPs handle VXLAN traffic forwarding without EVPN.


Question 3

Is this a use case for implementing Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) on an ArubaOS-CX switch?

Solution: to enable the switch to assign the correct priority and bandwidth to traffic that it transmits to servers



Answer : A

Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) is a network scheduling algorithm that allows the switch to assign different priority and bandwidth values to different traffic classes1. This can be useful for transmitting traffic to servers that have different requirements for latency, jitter, or throughput. For example, ETS can prioritize voice or video traffic over data traffic, or allocate more bandwidth to backup or replication traffic.ETS is configured using the Data Center Bridging Exchange (DCBx) protocol, which advertises the configuration to peer devices2. Therefore, implementing ETS on an ArubaOS-CX switch is a valid use case for enabling the switch to assign the correct priority and bandwidth to traffic that it transmits to servers.


Question 4

Is this how you should position switches in the ArubaOS-CX portfolio tor data center networks?

Solution: Deploy Aruba CX 8400 switches as core switches for very large three-tier data center networks.



Answer : A

Deploying Aruba CX 8400 switches as core switches for very large three-tier data center networks is how you should position switches in the ArubaOS-CX portfolio for data center networks.ArubaOS-CX is an operating system that provides advanced features and automation capabilities for data center networks1.It runs on various switch models that are designed for different roles and scenarios in the data center1.Aruba CX 8400 switches are modular switches that offer high performance, scalability, and reliability for the core layer of very large three-tier data center networks1. The statement is true because it correctly describes how to position Aruba CX 8400 switches in the ArubaOS-CX portfolio for data center networks.


Question 5

Your task is to configure an EVPN solution for a dual-stack IPv4 and IPv6 protocol in the overlay networks. Is this statement about EVPN and IPv6 correct?

Solution: IPv6 protocol can be encapsulated in the underlay network's IPv4 packets.



Answer : B

IPv6 protocol cannot be encapsulated in the underlay network's IPv4 packets.EVPN is a protocol that provides layer 2 and layer 3 services over an IP network1.It uses VXLAN tunnels to encapsulate Ethernet frames in UDP packets and transport them across the underlay network1.The underlay network can use either IPv4 or IPv6 protocol, but it must match the protocol used by the VXLAN tunnels1. The statement is false because it implies that IPv6 protocol can be encapsulated in IPv4 packets, which is not possible.


Question 6

You need to integrate Aruba Fabric Composer (AFC) with customer datacenter software. Is this integration possible?

Solution: Aruba Fabric Composer (AFC) with HPE StoreServ Management Console (SSMC)



Answer : A

Aruba Fabric Composer (AFC) with HPE StoreServ Management Console (SSMC) integration is possible.AFC is a software-defined networking solution that simplifies the management and orchestration of data center networks1.It can integrate with various data center software, such as VMware, Ansible, and Kubernetes1.SSMC is a web-based management tool that provides a unified interface for managing HPE 3PAR StoreServ storage systems2.AFC can integrate with SSMC to discover and visualize the storage network infrastructure and provide end-to-end visibility and troubleshooting1.

Question 7

Does this correctly describe how Network Analytics Engine (NAE) agents work?

Solution: Agents collect data every minute and send the data to a centralized SNMP server in SNMP traps.



Answer : B

Agents do not collect data every minute and send the data to a centralized SNMP server in SNMP traps.NAE is a feature that provides network operators with distributed analytics for faster troubleshooting and resolution of network-impacting issues1.Agents are scripts that run on ArubaOS-CX switches and collect data from various sources, such as CLI commands, REST APIs, or syslog messages1.Agents can also define conditions and actions based on the collected data1.Agents do not send the data to a centralized SNMP server, but store it locally on the switch1.Agents can also send alerts to external systems, such as email servers or syslog servers, but not in SNMP traps1. The statement is false because it incorrectly describes how NAE agents work.
