HPE Network Campus Access Professional Architect Sample Questions:

Question 1

Hotspot Question
Mark the layer where IGMP Snooping should be activated.

Question 2

Manufacturing A.B.C. is an international, mid-sized company specializing in producing industrial equipment. They have been in the market for over two decades and have established themselves as a reputable player in their industry. However, due to rapid technological advancements, their current network infrastructure is outdated and struggling to keep up with the demands of modern manufacturing processes.
Manufacturing A.B.C.'s network is a mix of multi-vendor legacy wired and wireless components, causing frequent downtime and hampering their production efficiency. The aging equipment leads to slow data transfer rates, unreliable connectivity, and increased vulnerability to cyber threats.
Fiber Cabling should be also upgraded as mostly OM2 is being used.
Compounding the network issues, the recent departure of the CTO has left the company without a clear direction for the network refresh project. There is a lack of consensus among the management team regarding the scope, budget, and timeline for the upgrade.
The primary objectives of the manufacturing customer are as follows:
- Improve network performance and reliability to enhance production processes and minimize downtime
- Enhance network security to protect sensitive data and intellectual property
- Streamline communication and collaboration among different departments within the organization
- Ensure scalability to accommodate future growth and technology advancements Manufacturing A.B.C. seeks a comprehensive network refresh that includes the following components:
- Upgrading the wired infrastructure to high-speed Ethernet switches to support increased data transfer rates and reduce latency
- Implementing a robust wireless solution with enterprise-grade access points to provide seamless connectivity across the manufacturing facility
- Centralized network management tools to simplify administration and monitoring of the network Expectations:
The customer expects the network refresh project to be handled efficiently, with minimal disruption to their ongoing operations. They are looking for a reliable and experienced network solutions provider who can understand their unique manufacturing requirements and deliver a customized solution that aligns with their budget constraints. The manufacturing customer is keen on receiving clear project proposals and support in decision-making, given the recent change of the CTO.
Your role as a network solutions provider is to address their concerns, offer expert guidance, and present a well-defined plan to meet their objectives effectively.
You assume that the current network infrastructure does not have any wireless shadow IT equipment operated on the various floors/production sites, but you want to verify this. How could you find out if wireless shadow IT equipment is currently operational?

A. Do a passive site survey, analyze the outcome together with the customer, and decommission this equipment wherever possible.
B. Do a ping sweep and document the hostnames/responses. Find out the connected switch port and walk to this location.
C. Ask employees if they use 3rd party equipment to create isolated Hotspots.
D. Use a wireless sniffer like Wireshark to scan the environment and look for anomalies.

Question 3

Refer to the exhibit.

Ensuring uninterrupted client connectivity during gateway fail over is a top priority for your customer's AOS-10 deployment.
Which option explains the AP redundancy strategy for the customer's HPE Aruba Networking environment with minimal disruption when transitioning between primary and secondary gateway clusters?

A. Verify that all participating APs and gateways can establish IPsec connections with gateways that are members of either the primary or secondary clusters.
B. The secondary cluster does not need to be in the same Group as the Primary cluster, but it must be part of the same tenant account.
C. Create an organizational mobility domain, then ensure both the primary and secondary clusters are added to the same mobility domain.
D. Configure the Cluster Orchestrator to setup a state synchronization IPsec tunnel between the primary and secondary cluster leaders.

Question 4

A global cruise line company needs to refresh its current fleet. They will refresh the 'insides' of the ship to be cost-effective and increase their sustainability. They will replace the complete WLAN/LAN hardware of the ship. In this refresh, the company will not refresh its current security requirements. The CIO also wants to limit the number of unused ports in the switches. Future expansion will always mean a refresh of hardware. They start with the smallest ship with a maximum of 800 guests.
Each ship has a LAN infrastructure consisting of two core switches, up to 10 redundant distribution switches, and up to 500 access switches (400 cabins, 100 technical rooms). The Core switches are located in the MDF of the ship and the distribution switches are located in the IDFs of the ship. Each cabin and technical room gets one single access switch.
The cabling structure of the ship will not be refreshed. Each IDF is connected to the MDF by SMF, of which two pairs are available for the interconnect between the core and distribution. The length of SM fiber between MDF and IDF is less than 300 meters (980 ft) and the type used is OS1. Each cabin is connected by a single OM2 pair to the IDF, the maximum length is 60 meters (200 ft). Each technical room is connected by a single OM2 pair to the IDF, with lengths between
100 and 150 meters (320 and 500 ft).
For each cabin/technical room the customer is looking to replace their current fan-less 2530/2540 without changing the requirements, except they need to upgrade the uplink to distribution switch to 10GbE to handle the increased network traffic, and the technical rooms need redundant power.
The WLAN infrastructure will be 1:1 refreshed without new cabling or new AP locations. Their WLAN infrastructure is based on the 200/300 series indoor and outdoor APs running InstantOS (less than 300 APs), the customer has no change in WLAN requirements.
The cruise line company will replace its current internet connection before the LAN/WLAN refresh. The new Internet connection will provide a 99.8% uptime, which is needed to ensure the paid quest Wi-Fi is always operational. With this new Internet connection, the CIO of the cruise line wants to base the design on the ESP architecture from Aruba because internet connection is guaranteed.
The week after the presentation of your design to the CIO of the cruise line company, the CIO calls you to discuss increasing the security on the wired network infrastructure. Since one of their competitors had one of their cruise ships cyber hacked, the CSO of the cruise line has mandated increased security on the wired network. They have heard about dynamic segmentation and central and decentral overlay networks. For their POS systems, they need a low-latency network connection between the POS system and the POS server in the data center on the ship. Also, the CSO wants to enhance the WLAN security as well by tunneling all user traffic.
What solution fits the customer's requirements?

A. Standardize on 6200 switches for the edge, 8325 for the RR, 8360 for the stub/border, and utilize Aruba Central NetConductor
B. Standardize on 6300 switches for the edge, 8320 for the RR, 8320 for the stub/border. 9240 for the WLAN Gateway, and utilize Aruba Central NetConductor
C. Standardize on 6300 switches for the edge, 8325 for the RR, 8360 for the stub/border. 9240 for the WLAN Gateway, and utilize Aruba Central NetConductor.
D. Standardize on 6300 switches for the edge, 8320 for the RR, 8360 for the stub/border, and utilize Aruba Central NetConductor
E. Standardize on 6300 switches for the edge, 8320 for the RR, 8360 for the stub/border. 9240 for the WLAN Gateway, and utilize Aruba Central NetConductor.
