HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Expert (ACNSX) — Question 59
A company uses NetEdit to manage a network of 700 AOS-CX switches and approximately 1,000 other SNMP-capable devices.
Which management solution should the company use to monitor all the devices, as well as see a topology picture of how all the devices are connected together?
Answer options
- A. NetEdit
- B. Aruba AirWave
- C. Aruba Activate
- D. Network Analysis Engine (NAE)
Correct answer: A
Explanation
NetEdit is specifically designed for managing AOS-CX switches, making it the ideal choice for overseeing the entire network and providing a topology view. While Aruba AirWave and Aruba Activate offer device management and visibility, they are not tailored for AOS-CX switches as effectively as NetEdit. Network Analysis Engine (NAE) focuses on analytics rather than direct management, making it less suitable for the comprehensive monitoring required in this scenario.
