HPE Aruba Certified Switching Professional (ACSP) — Question 13

A company has ArubaOS switches that are already configured to support the network. The company now wants to use Aruba AirWave to manage the switches.
The network administrator creates a new group on Aruba AirWave, and then discovers several ArubaOS switches that should belong to this group.
What is the best practice for the initial authorization of the switches in AirWave?

Answer options

• A. Authorize the switches in Monitor + Firmware Updates only mode.
• B. Authorize the switches and immediately change the scan set credentials to match the credentials on the switches.
• C. Authorize the switches and immediately change the global communication settings to match the credentials on the switches.
• D. Authorize the switches in Managed Read/Write mode.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The best practice is to authorize the switches in Managed Read/Write mode (D) as it allows full control and management capabilities over the switches. Options A, B, and C do not provide the necessary management capabilities that are required for effective operation, limiting the functionality of AirWave with the switches.
