HPE Virtual Connect Solutions v4 — Question 5

A customer environment is being managed and monitored with HPE OneView. A review of the OneView log shows that there have been several trap storm events.
Which series of events must take place for OneView to insert a Trap Storm event entry into the log of system events?

Answer options

• A. SNMP traps from three or more identical hosts have been logged within the past 256 seconds.
• B. Four or more identical SNMP traps have been logged within the past 30 seconds.
• C. Three or more SNMP trap messages have been logged with increasingly critical variable string values.
• D. Four or more ports on the same network switch have reported sequential SNMP trap messages.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because OneView identifies a trap storm when four or more identical SNMP traps are logged within a short timeframe of 30 seconds. Option A refers to a longer time period without specifying the number of identical traps necessary, while options C and D do not meet the criteria for a trap storm as defined by OneView.
