HPE Aruba Certified Central Associate (ACCA) — Question 18

A four-member CX 6200F VSF configuration is being planned to replace the current 5412R switch. The customer has an open-source network management solution and requires an answer to how they can monitor the switch stack.

Answer options

• A. The SNMP service must be enabled on mgmt VRF for each VSF member for queries.
• B. The SNMP service on the Conductor switch will respond to all SNMP queries for the stack.
• C. The SNMP service will be enabled by default for each members OOBM port for queries.
• D. The SNMP service will respond to queries and stack them on both Conductor and Standby members.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the Conductor switch in a VSF setup is designed to handle SNMP queries for the entire stack, simplifying management. Options A and C are incorrect as they misinterpret the default behavior of SNMP in the context of VSF configurations. Option D is also wrong because it inaccurately describes the handling of SNMP queries by the Standby member.
