HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Professional (ACNSP) — Question 78

The customer has 778 developers testing computer games on the network.
Which two actions resolve Broadcast storms? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Manually disable the redundant link to immediately resolve the impacted portion of the network.
• B. Utilize Spanning Tree to dynamically disable all redundant links in a segment.
• C. Setting switch ports to half-duplex will resolve Broadcast storms using Carrier Sense Multiple-Access Collision Detection (CSMA/CD).
• D. Enable single Area Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) on all Layer 2 switches, but do not enable routing.
• E. Utilize Spanning Tree to dynamically block Designated ports in addition to Alternate ports.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

Answer A is correct because manually disabling the redundant link can immediately alleviate the problem in the affected area of the network. Answer B is also correct as Spanning Tree Protocol prevents loops by dynamically disabling redundant links. The other options do not effectively address the issue of Broadcast storms in the context of this scenario.
