Which Aruba AOS-CX command is used to evaluate interface error counters to identify physical layer problems on a wired switch port?
Answer: show interface extended
The 'show interface extended' command displays detailed error counters (CRC, input errors, collisions) essential for physical layer diagnostics.
When assessing Aruba switch stack performance, which metric indicates that the stacking interconnect is a bottleneck?
Answer: Elevated stack port error rates and drops
Elevated error rates and packet drops on stack interconnect ports directly indicate a stacking bandwidth or cabling bottleneck.
An Aruba network team is conducting a capacity evaluation for a high-density venue. Which design consideration is MOST critical for ensuring adequate airtime per client?
Answer: Disabling 802.11b/g data rates
Disabling legacy 802.11b/g data rates prevents slow clients from consuming disproportionate airtime, improving overall high-density network efficiency.
Which Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager tool allows administrators to simulate and evaluate the policy decision for a specific authentication request without live traffic?
Answer: Policy Simulation
ClearPass Policy Simulation lets administrators test policy rules against hypothetical request attributes to validate enforcement decisions before deployment.
When evaluating Aruba network readiness for IoT deployments, which segmentation technique is recommended to isolate IoT devices from corporate assets?
Answer: Dynamic Segmentation with Aruba Policy Enforcement Firewall (PEF)
Dynamic Segmentation using Aruba PEF applies user/device-based policies in real time to isolate IoT traffic without relying solely on static VLAN boundaries.
During post-change evaluation on an Aruba AOS-CX switch, an administrator uses 'show tech' output. What is the PRIMARY use of this command?
Answer: Collecting comprehensive diagnostic data for TAC analysis
The 'show tech' command collects a comprehensive snapshot of switch state, logs, and counters specifically designed for TAC troubleshooting submissions.
Which Aruba Meridian feature is used to evaluate the accuracy of indoor positioning for asset tracking deployments?
Answer: Location Accuracy Report
The Location Accuracy Report in Aruba Meridian compares reported asset locations against known reference points to quantify positioning precision.
