HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Professional (ACNSP) — Question 26

You need to remote into an AOS-CX switch using SSH in order to update the management IP address for future connections. Unfortunately, you mis-configured the IP address and are now locked out of the switch.
What command could you have issued before making changes that would have recovered the original switch configuration after ten minutes?

Answer options

• A. checkpoint rollback 10
• B. checkpoint auto 10
• C. checkpoint auto confirm 10
• D. boot system secondary 10

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as the 'checkpoint auto 10' command automatically creates a checkpoint every 10 minutes, allowing for recovery of the configuration. Option A, 'checkpoint rollback 10', is incorrect because it doesn't initiate an automatic checkpoint. Options C and D are also incorrect as they relate to different functionalities that do not provide the same recovery mechanism.
