HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Associate (ACNSA) — Question 76

An administrator moves an AP from Campus 1 to Campus 2. At the Campus 2, the moved AP does not connect to a controller and download an AP Group configuration.

Which process should the administrator perform to reset the AP back to its initial default state?

Answer options

• A. From the AP’s ArubaOS CLI, execute write erase all.
• B. From apboot mode, execute factory_reset.
• C. From the controller's ArubaOS CLI, execute write erase all.
• D. From apboot mode, execute reset.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because executing 'factory_reset' from apboot mode will restore the AP to its default settings. Option A is incorrect as it pertains to the AP's CLI and does not reset it to factory settings. Option C is wrong since it refers to the controller's CLI, which is not relevant for resetting an AP. Option D is also incorrect because 'reset' does not perform a complete factory reset.
