HPE Aruba Certified Mobility Professional (ACMP) — Question 71

A network administrator applies port security to a port with the send-alarm action. What does the switch do if it detects traffic from an unauthorized MAC address on the port?

Answer options

• A. It disables the port, but sends no SNMP trap.
• B. It forwards the traffic, and it logs an event.
• C. It blocks the traffic, but sends no SNMP trap.
• D. It blocks the traffic, and it sends an SNMP trap.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because when the send-alarm action is configured, the switch disables the port upon detecting an unauthorized MAC address but does not send an SNMP trap. Options B, C, and D describe actions that do not align with the configuration of the send-alarm action.
