ACSP Network Monitoring and Management 5

Question 1

Which Aruba tool provides a topology map and historical performance data for switches managed in a campus network?

Accepted Answer

Aruba Central

Answer

Aruba Central provides topology visualization, historical performance trending, and centralized management for campus switches and wireless infrastructure.

Question 2

When configuring SNMPv3 on an Aruba switch, which two parameters uniquely identify a user for authentication?

Accepted Answer

Username and engine ID

Answer

In SNMPv3, the combination of username and the authoritative engine ID uniquely identifies a user and prevents replay attacks across different SNMP engines.

Question 3

An ArubaOS-CX switch is sending event logs to a syslog server. The administrator wants to also store them locally for 7 days. Which configuration achieves this?

Accepted Answer

logging buffered severity informational count 10000

Answer

Configuring 'logging buffered' with a severity level and buffer count stores messages locally in RAM; the retention duration depends on log volume and buffer size.

Question 4

Which SNMP operation does a management station use to retrieve a series of consecutive MIB variables from a switch?

Accepted Answer

SNMP GetBulk

Answer

GetBulk retrieves multiple MIB variables in a single request, making it more efficient than issuing repeated GetNext operations for table data.

Question 5

A network operations team wants to receive immediate notification when a switch's power supply fails. Which configuration should be implemented?

Accepted Answer

SNMP trap or inform for the cefcFRURemoved or similar power supply OID

Answer

Configuring SNMP traps or informs for power supply events ensures immediate notification when a power supply is removed or fails, without the delay of polling.
