HPE Aruba Certified Switching Professional (ACSP) — Question 27

A network administrator needs to set up a static LACP link aggregation. How should the administrator configure the VLAN settings for the link aggregation?

Answer options

• A. Configure the VLANs on the physical interface with the lowest port ID before link aggregation setup.
• B. Configure the VLANs on both physical interfaces after link aggregation setup.
• C. Configure the VLANs on the link aggregation interface after the link aggregation setup.
• D. Configure the VLANs on both physical interfaces before link aggregation setup.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because configuring VLANs on the physical interface with the lowest port ID before link aggregation ensures that the aggregation functions correctly. Options B and C are incorrect as they suggest configuring VLANs after the link aggregation is set up, which can lead to misconfigurations. Option D, while close, does not prioritize the lowest port ID as required for proper static LACP configuration.
