HPE Aruba Certified Switching Expert (ACSX) — Question 41

An SNMP probe is sent from ClearPass to a network access device but ClearPass is unable to get profiling information.
What could be a valid cause? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Mismatching SNMP community string in the ClearPass and NAD configuration.
• B. Only SNMP read has been configured but SNMP write is needed for profiling information.
• C. SNMP is not enabled on the NAD.
• D. An external firewall is blocking SNMP traffic.
• E. SNMP probing is not supported between ClearPass and NADs.

Correct answer: A, C, D

Explanation

The correct answers A, C, and D indicate issues that can prevent successful SNMP communication, such as mismatched community strings, SNMP being turned off, or firewalls blocking the traffic. Option B is incorrect because SNMP read permissions are typically sufficient for profiling, while option E is wrong since SNMP probing is generally supported between ClearPass and NADs.
