HPE Virtual Connect Solutions v4 — Question 97

A customer is planning to deploy a new Top of Rack solution. They plan to use a stacking technology that meets the following requirements:
✑ Support for Multi Chassis Link Aggregation in an active-active mode.
✑ The control plane must not be a single point of failure.
✑ Rapid Fail-over.
✑ Unified Management.
✑ They require a maximum of two switches per stack.
Which stacking technology meets the customer's requirements?

Answer options

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Aruba Virtual Switching Extension (VSX), as it supports Multi Chassis Link Aggregation in an active-active mode, offers rapid fail-over, and provides unified management without a single point of failure. The other options do not meet all the specified requirements, particularly in terms of active-active support and control plane redundancy.
