Which Aruba feature allows a single physical AP to broadcast multiple SSIDs with different security policies?
Answer: Virtual AP (VAP)
Virtual APs allow a single physical AP to host multiple SSIDs, each with its own VLAN, security settings, and QoS policies.
In Aruba's 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) implementation, what technology enables simultaneous uplink transmissions from multiple clients?
Answer: UL-MU-MIMO
Uplink MU-MIMO (UL-MU-MIMO) in 802.11ax allows multiple clients to transmit simultaneously to the AP, improving uplink efficiency.
What is the purpose of BSS Coloring in Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)?
Answer: Reduce co-channel interference by tagging frames with a color ID
BSS Coloring tags frames from different BSSs with unique color identifiers so stations can distinguish overlapping networks and reduce unnecessary deferrals.
Which Aruba Central feature provides AI-driven anomaly detection and root cause analysis for WLAN issues?
Answer: AI Insights
AI Insights in Aruba Central uses machine learning to detect network anomalies and provide guided root cause analysis to accelerate troubleshooting.
An AP configured in Spectrum Monitor mode primarily performs which function?
Answer: Scan the RF spectrum to detect non-802.11 interference sources
Spectrum Monitor mode dedicates the AP to scanning RF spectrum for non-Wi-Fi interferers like microwaves, Bluetooth, and radar using Aruba's spectrum analysis engine.
What is the maximum number of spatial streams supported by an 802.11ac Wave 2 AP using MU-MIMO?
Answer: 4 streams to 4 clients
802.11ac Wave 2 MU-MIMO supports downlink transmissions to up to 4 clients simultaneously, with each client receiving up to 4 spatial streams.
Which ArubaOS tunnel mode encapsulates all wireless client traffic in GRE and forwards it to the mobility controller?
Answer: Tunnel Mode
In Tunnel Mode, all client traffic is encapsulated in GRE and forwarded to the mobility controller for centralized policy enforcement and routing.
