Question 1: Which Aruba AOS-CX command saves the running configuration to the startup configuration?
- write memory
- copy running-config startup-config (Correct answer)
- save config
- commit configuration
Correct answer: copy running-config startup-config
On AOS-CX, 'copy running-config startup-config' persists the current running configuration to the startup configuration file.
Question 2: What is the purpose of the 'checkpoint' feature in Aruba AOS-CX?
- Captures a snapshot of the configuration that can be rolled back to later (Correct answer)
- Saves logs to an external syslog server
- Creates a spanning tree root bridge election point
- Generates a configuration diff between two switches
Correct answer: Captures a snapshot of the configuration that can be rolled back to later
Checkpoints in AOS-CX allow administrators to capture a named snapshot of the configuration and roll back to it if needed.
Question 3: On an Aruba switch running AOS-CX, which command enters the configuration context for interface 1/1/1?
- interface ethernet 1/1/1
- interface 1/1/1 (Correct answer)
- config interface 1/1/1
- set interface 1/1/1
Correct answer: interface 1/1/1
In AOS-CX, 'interface 1/1/1' is used to enter the configuration context for a specific interface using slot/module/port notation.
Question 4: What does the 'no shutdown' command do when applied to an AOS-CX switch interface?
- Removes the interface from all VLANs
- Administratively enables the interface (Correct answer)
- Resets the interface counters
- Disables spanning tree on the interface
Correct answer: Administratively enables the interface
'no shutdown' administratively enables an interface that was previously disabled with the 'shutdown' command.
Question 5: Which AOS-CX command displays the current management IP address and default gateway of a switch?
- show ip route

- show management
- show system ip
Correct answer: show interface mgmt
'show interface mgmt' displays the management interface's IP address, default gateway, and other management plane parameters.
Question 6: When configuring an out-of-band management interface on an Aruba AOS-CX switch, which VRF is used by default?
- default
- management (Correct answer)
- global
- oob
Correct answer: management
AOS-CX places the dedicated management interface in the 'management' VRF, isolating management traffic from the data plane.
