HPE Aruba Certified Switching Professional (ACSP) — Question 39
A network administrator wants to pre-configure new MSTP region settings on ArubaOS switches, and then apply the new settings at a later time. How can the administrator pre-configure the settings?
Answer options
- A. Change the MSTP region name after the new settings are configured.
- B. Create a second spanning tree region on the switch and apply the settings to this region.
- C. Use the pending option in the spanning-tree commands.
- D. Change the MSTP region revision number after the new settings are configured.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C, as the pending option in the spanning-tree commands allows for the configuration of MSTP settings that can be applied later. Options A and D involve changing settings after configuration, which does not align with pre-configuration. Option B suggests creating a second region, but it does not address the need to pre-configure settings effectively.
