NEW QUESTION # 23
ACME retail has 38 locations spread out across five US states and two provinces in Canada.
They are looking to grow 20% over the next two years. They have an HQ with a staff of 200 employees. The organization has eight Regional Managers and two VPs who work from home and the road. Stores typically have 17 employees on average per location.
The two warehouses have a remote loading system and 20 employees each to load the trucks and fulfill the online orders. The warehouse has 40-foot ceilings and large metal racks to store inventory. The main location is 240K sq ft (22300 sq m) and the Canadian warehouse is 130K sq ft (12100 sq m). The forklifts on the loading docks are equipped with a wireless tablet on board.
A typical store is reportedly about 60,000 sq ft (5575 sq m) and smaller stores are planned at
25,000 sq ft (2320 sq m). The locations need to expand the abilities to vendors that need to add setup displays or interactive kiosks in the stores. The current infrastructure was installed in 2015 and used wireless N technology in a coverage model. The wiring is Cat5, and they are unsure of the fiber connections. The inventory is all placed on the floor when it is delivered to the local store.
Inventory control is handled through Zebra barcode scanners, and they have had a lot of issues in getting signals throughout the stores and this makes monthly inventory difficult. The organization has a small help desk to troubleshoot issues that happen at the retail locations and PC support for the office. The company is looking to upgrade away from the current PBX system later this year. With the need to grow and cut costs, they are interested in moving the data to the cloud but need to get almost real-time inventory control for the online service to function.
The network has all been wired over the last ten years, but with the new systems being all wireless, they have seen the trend to offer wireless to all the vendors for their needs but also would be to allow employees, guests, and contractors all to use it. With the new IT director starting next week, the project has been set by the CTO of the company. The marketing group has asked how they can interact with the customers and get more info, while the IT support desk needs to cut staff in half.
The office has an MDF and two IDFs located on floors one and two. The MDF is in the basement, and you have multiple WAN circuits for the HQ links. Each store has a local handoff from the cable company (ethernet) in the middle of the store in the office, so distance for the wiring is not an issue.
The customer has budget concerns but does want something that could last 7+ years.
Based on the best practices and customer requirements, what is the correct WLAN approach?
- A. OS8 campus deployment
- B. OS10 AP only deployment
- C. OS10 AP and gateway deployment
- D. Instant OS8 deployment
Answer: D
Explanation:
For ACME Retail, which has multiple locations and a mix of environments including high-ceiling warehouses and retail spaces, an Aruba Instant OS 8 deployment is a suitable WLAN approach.
Aruba Instant OS provides a controller-less architecture, which simplifies the deployment and management of the wireless network, especially across multiple sites. This approach enables ACME Retail to manage their entire wireless network from a single interface without the need for dedicated hardware controllers, reducing costs and complexity. Instant OS also supports advanced features like Adaptive Radio Management and ClientMatch to ensure optimal performance in diverse environments, making it an effective solution for ACME's varied locations and requirements.
NEW QUESTION # 24
Match the deployment type with the usage scenario.
Answer:
Explanation:
Explanation:
Capacity based design with low to mid density - Basic office/cubicle area with low to medium user density and no voice with limited rf redundancy.
Coverage based design - Coverage, office areas with higher user density OR basic coverage office/cubicle with High Demand users High-capacity design - High user density indoor space, with high demand users Very low-density, low coverage - Warehouses, large open areas The types of wireless network deployment should be matched to the usage scenarios based on the density of users and coverage requirements:
* Capacity based design with low to mid density is suitable for basic office or cubicle areas where there are not many users, and high-performance voice applications are not a priority, thus limited RF redundancy may be acceptable.
* Coverage based design is intended for areas where coverage is more critical than capacity. It could be used in office areas with higher user density, where maintaining a basic level of connectivity is more important than accommodating a large number of high-bandwidth connections.
* High-capacity design is used in environments where there is a high density of users who are likely to be using bandwidth-intensive applications. This could include indoor spaces like conference centers, auditoriums, or any area with a high concentration of users and devices.
* Very low-density, low coverage is typically for spaces like warehouses or large open areas where there are few users spread out over a large area. The focus here is on providing coverage to all areas, regardless of the low user density.
NEW QUESTION # 25
What are the advantages of using a VSX-pair instead of two discrete switches to connect servers, storage, firewalls, and other workloads?
- A. You can save half the number of licenses needed for AFC.
- B. Bare metal servers can be connected via MLAGs using LACP.
- C. The setup is much easier since both switches are sharing the same configuration.
- D. VMWare-Host can be connected with or without using LACP. regardless of their license.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) is a virtualization technology for Aruba AOS-CX switches that provides high availability by allowing two switches to appear as a single logical device to connected endpoints.
The primary advantage for servers and workloads includes:
* Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG): VSX allows for the creation of Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation Groups. This enables bare metal servers and other workloads to connect to two different physical switches using a single LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) bond.
* Redundancy and Throughput: Because both links in the MLAG are active, the server benefits from doubled bandwidth and seamless failover; if one switch goes down, the server continues to communicate through the second switch without a port flap.
* Control Plane Independence: Unlike older stacking technologies (VSR), VSX maintains separate control planes for each switch. This allows for Live Upgrades, where one switch can be updated while the other continues to forward traffic, ensuring zero downtime for connected workloads.
Why other options are incorrect:
* Option B: While VMware hosts can connect, their ability to use LACP is dependent on the VMware license level (e.g., Distributed Virtual Switch requires Enterprise Plus).
* Option C: While VSX synchronizes some parameters via the VSX-Sync feature, both switches maintain their own unique configurations (such as IP addresses and hostnames), so they do not literally
"share the same configuration".

NEW QUESTION # 28
A global furniture retail company called 'No-Stair Inc.' requests you design their new WLAN infrastructure for a global footprint. Each location of 'No-Stair Inc." has a similar layout: three small manager offices, a warehouse, and a 'retail' area. The 'retail' area and the warehouse together amount to 95% of the location. The IT department of the company is minimally engaged in their LAN refresh so the CTO of the company has shared the information below.
Current WLAN Infrastructure is based on the 802.11n "WIFI4Less" access-points series (both model 2013-INT (2.4 only internal antenna) and model 2019-EXT (dual-band external antenna only). These AP models are standalone without any centralized management. Last year 'No-Stair Inc.' ran a project called 'secure-it' ensuring that all needed network security was implemented to be fully compliant with their security standards. During this project, they also upgraded the AAA.
Infrastructure to handle the increased AAA requests. No additional Wi-Fi or security requirements are listed for this WLAN refresh, which means that 'No-Stair Inc.' will continue to use bridged SSIDs, with local breakout into different VLANs.
The CTO of 'No-Stair Inc.' understands the need for you to ask additional questions to deliver the design. The questions may be sent in written form and will be answered within two weeks.
What is a possible constraint?
- A. Does the existing AAA infrastructure support an upgraded Wi-Fi Network?
- B. Does the existing wired network support enough PoE for an upgraded Wi-Fi Network?
- C. Does the existing core switch support an upgraded Wi-Fi Network?
- D. Does the existing WAN infrastructure support an upgraded Wi-Fi Network?
Answer: C
Explanation:
Because the WLAN will continue using bridged SSIDs with local VLAN breakout, all Wi-Fi traffic depends directly on the existing core switching infrastructure. If the current core switch cannot handle the increased load or capabilities of the new Wi-Fi design, this becomes a fixed design limitation - a constraint.

NEW QUESTION # 39
A global cruise line company needs to refresh its current fleet. They will refresh the 'insides' of the ship to be cost-effective and increase their sustainability. They will replace the complete WLAN/LAN hardware of the ship. In this refresh, the company will not refresh its current security requirements. The CIO also wants to limit the number of unused ports in the switches. Future expansion will always mean a refresh of hardware.
They start with the smallest ship with a maximum of 800 guests.
Each ship has a LAN infrastructure consisting of two core switches, up to 10 redundant distribution switches, and up to 500 access switches (400 cabins, 100 technical rooms). The core switches are located in the MDF of the ship and the distribution switches are located in the IDFs of the ship. Each cabin and technical room gets one single access switch.
The cabling structure of the ship will not be refreshed. Each IDF is connected to the MDF by SMF, of which two pairs are available for the interconnect between the core and distribution. The length of SM fiber between MDF and IDF is less than 300 meters (980 ft) and the type used is OS1. Each cabin is connected by a single OM2 pair to the IDF, the maximum length is 60 meters (200 ft). Each technical room is connected by a single OM2 pair to the IDF, with lengths between 100 and 150 meters (320 and 500 ft).
For each cabin/technical room the customer is looking to replace their current fan-less 2530/2540 without changing the requirements, except they need to upgrade the uplink to distribution switch to 10 GbE to handle the increased network traffic, and the technical rooms need redundant power.
The WLAN infrastructure will be 1:1 refreshed without new cabling or new AP locations. Their WLAN infrastructure is based on the 200/300 series indoor and outdoor APs running InstantOS (less than 300 APs), the customer has no change in WLAN requirements.
The cruise line company will replace its current Internet connection before the LAN/WLAN refresh. The new Internet connection will provide a 99.8% uptime, which is needed to ensure the paid guest Wi-Fi is always operational. With this new Internet connection, the CIO of the cruise line wants to base the design on the ESP architecture from Aruba because the Internet connection is guaranteed.
Based on best practices, what should you recommend as the correct optic type for the connection between the IDF and the cabins?
- A. 10GBASE-T SFP+ RJ-45 30 m Cat6A Transceiver
- B. 10G SFP+ LC SR 300 m MMF Transceiver
- C. 10G SFP+ LC LRM 220 m MMF Transceiver
- D. 10G LC BiDi 40 km 1330/1270 XCVR
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
* Cabling Type in Use:Each cabin and technical room is connected to the IDF with a single OM2 multimode fiber pair. The maximum length to cabins is 60 meters, and to technical rooms 100-150 meters.
* Best Practice for 10 GbE over OM2:According to Aruba's Campus Access Design Guides and HPE Aruba CX switch transceiver support matrices:
* OM2 multimode fiber supports 10GBASE-SR optics up to 82 meters.
* Since the maximum run is 60 meters, 10GBASE-SR is fully supported with headroom.
* 10GBASE-LRM can reach 220 m on MMF, but is not required here because the fiber length is much shorter. SR optics are simpler, lower cost, and recommended in best practices when distances are within OM2 limits.
* 10GBASE-T RJ-45 (Cat6A) is not applicable, as the cabling is fiber, not copper.
* BiDi 40 km optics are for long-haul single-mode fiber links, not short multimode fiber runs.
* Aruba Validated Design Reference:Aruba's Validated Solution Guides for Campus Access state that for short multimode connections (OM2/OM3/OM4), the recommended transceiver type is
10GBASE-SR (SFP+ LC) as it provides the most cost-effective and reliable option within the supported reach.
* Requirement Mapping:
* Uplinks to access switches in cabins/technical rooms must be 10 GbE capable.
* The OM2 cabling length (60-150 m) is within the supported distance for 10GBASE-SR.
* Therefore, the correct and most efficient optic choice is 10G SFP+ LC SR 300 m MMF Transceiver.
Final Justification:
Option B is correct because 10GBASE-SR over OM2 supports the required distances, aligns with Aruba design best practices, and avoids unnecessary cost/complexity of LRM or BiDi optics.
Reference Extracts (Aruba Official Study & Design Guides):
* Aruba Campus Access Design Guide: recommended transceiver selection for MMF cabling.
* Aruba CX Transceiver Guide: 10GBASE-SR supports OM2 up to 82 m, OM3 up to 300 m, OM4 up to
400 m.
* Aruba Validated Solution Guide: Always select SR optics for OM2 # 82 m runs as the cost-effective standard.
