HPE Aruba Certified Professional (ACP) – SD-WAN — Question 122

You are deploying a pair of VSX switches parallel to some existing HPE Comware switches. You would like to configure a common first-hot redundancy protocol as part of your migration strategy.
Which of these would be suitable?

Answer options

• A. Active Gateway
• B. HSRP
• C. VRRP
• D. Active Forwarding

Correct answer: C

Explanation

VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) is the correct choice because it is designed to provide first-hop redundancy for IP networks. Active Gateway and HSRP (Hot Standby Router Protocol) are alternative protocols but are not as commonly used in conjunction with VSX switches. Active Forwarding is not a redundancy protocol, making it unsuitable for this scenario.
