HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Associate (ACNSA) — Question 79

An administrator configures a server group with two AAA servers. During the authentication process, the first server sends a RADIUS reject message in response to an authentication request.

What should the administrator implement to ensure that the authentication is also attempted with the second AAA server in the group?

Answer options

• A. EAP termination
• B. Machine authentication
• C. VRRP server groups
• D. EAP load balancing

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Implementing VRRP server groups allows for high availability and failover between servers, ensuring that if one server rejects an authentication request, the second server can still be contacted for authentication attempts. The other options do not facilitate switching to a second server after a rejection; EAP termination, machine authentication, and EAP load balancing do not address the need for failover in this scenario.
