  1. Which framework is MOST commonly referenced when establishing a risk management program for an Aruba enterprise network environment?

    Answer: NIST SP 800-30

    NIST SP 800-30 provides the Guide for Conducting Risk Assessments and is the most widely adopted framework for IT risk management.

  2. An Aruba project team is conducting a Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) on its controller cluster. What is the PRIMARY goal of FMEA?

    Answer: To identify how each component can fail and assess the severity of each failure mode

    FMEA systematically identifies potential failure modes for each component, their causes, and the severity of their effects on the overall system.

  3. A service level agreement (SLA) for an Aruba-managed WLAN guarantees 99.9% uptime. What is the maximum allowable downtime per month under this SLA?

    Answer: Approximately 43.8 minutes

    99.9% uptime allows 0.1% downtime; for a 30-day month (43,200 minutes), 0.1% equals approximately 43.2 minutes of allowable downtime.

  4. In Aruba network quality assurance, what is the purpose of conducting a site survey before deployment?

    Answer: To identify RF interference sources, coverage gaps, and optimal AP placement before installation

    A pre-deployment site survey identifies physical and RF factors that could impact performance, enabling informed design decisions.

  5. During an Aruba network risk assessment, the team calculates Annual Loss Expectancy (ALE). Which formula correctly represents ALE?

    Answer: ALE = Single Loss Expectancy (SLE) × Annualized Rate of Occurrence (ARO)

    ALE is calculated by multiplying SLE (the loss per incident) by ARO (how often the incident is expected to occur per year).

  6. Which Aruba Central feature enables proactive quality assurance by predicting potential network issues before they impact users?

    Answer: AI-powered anomaly detection and predictive analytics

    Aruba Central's AI-powered analytics detect behavioral anomalies and predict issues before they escalate, supporting proactive QA.

  7. An Aruba administrator must ensure that configuration changes to the Mobility Controller are traceable, reversible, and approved. Which process BEST meets all three requirements?

    Answer: A formal change management process with rollback plans and CAB approval

    A formal change management process with CAB approval, documentation, and rollback plans satisfies traceability, reversibility, and authorization requirements.
