HPE Aruba Certified Mobility Expert (ACMX) — Question 15

An administrator purchases a RAP and has it shipped directly to a branch office. The branch office plugs in the RAP and the RAP contacts Aruba Activate. The
RAP learns the Mobility Controller (MC) IP address and connects to it. However, the connection fails.
Upon verifying the MC IP address in Aruba Activate, what should the administrator do to allow the RAP connection to succeed?

Answer options

• A. Whitelist the RAP’s IP address on the MC.
• B. Define the RAP’s IPSec pre-shared key in Activate.
• C. Whitelist the RAP’s certificate on the MC.
• D. Configure a VPN address pool in Activate.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as whitelisting the RAP's IP address on the Mobility Controller (MC) is essential for establishing a successful connection. Options B and C are incorrect because they do not address the connectivity issue directly related to IP address authorization. Option D is also not relevant to the immediate need for allowing the RAP to connect.
