HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Professional (ACNSP) — Question 12

Which two statements are true regarding Checkpoints on Aruba switches? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Rolling back to a prior checkpoint triggers a reboot of the switch.
• B. Stacking switches using VSF or VSX will disable the Checkpoint feature.
• C. A checkpoint is a snapshot of the running-configuration and relevant metadata at the time the checkpoint was created.
• D. System-generated checkpoints are created after a configuration change and 5 minutes of inactivity.
• E. Checkpoints are available on AOS 5400R switches, as well as on all AOS-CX switches.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

Option C is correct because a checkpoint indeed captures the running-configuration and relevant metadata at the time of creation. Option D is also correct as system-generated checkpoints are created after configuration changes and periods of inactivity. Options A, B, and E are incorrect because rolling back to a checkpoint does not necessarily trigger a reboot, stacking does not disable the feature, and Checkpoints are not limited to AOS 5400R switches alone.
