HPE Aruba Certified Mobility Expert (ACMX) — Question 40

An administrator supports a network that contains ArubaOS-Switches and Mobility Controllers (MCs). Restrictive MC firewall policies, control wireless access. The administrator wants to implement a feature to apply the same MC firewall policies to users connected to the Ethernet switch ports.
Which ArubaOS-Switch feature provides this capability?

Answer options

• A. Port Security
• B. Tunneled node
• C. IPSec site-to-site tunneling
• D. VSF

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, Port Security, because it allows the enforcement of security policies on switch ports, similar to how MC firewall policies control wireless access. The other options do not provide this capability: B, Tunneled node is for connecting remote users to the network; C, IPSec site-to-site tunneling is for secure connections between sites; D, VSF is about virtual switching framework and does not enforce firewall policies.
