HPE Aruba Certified Professional (ACP) – SD-WAN — Question 69

When combining Strict Priority (SP) with other queuing types, how can you avoid starvation of lower priority queues?

Answer options

• A. Apply multiple queuing profiles to the same interface.
• B. Configure WFQ DWRR instead of queuing.
• C. Apply shaping to queue 7.
• D. Configure a higher weight for lower priority queues.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C, suggests applying shaping to queue 7, which helps manage bandwidth and prevents starvation by ensuring that lower priority queues are given a chance to transmit data. Options A and B do not directly address starvation and may complicate the queuing process, while D could potentially worsen starvation by increasing the weight of lower priority queues without addressing the immediate need for shaping.
