When using Aruba Central what can identify recommended steps to resolve network health issues and allows you to share detailed information with support personnel?
Correct Answer:
B
OAlOps is a feature of Aruba Central that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to identify recommended steps to resolve network health issues and allows you to share detailed information with support personnel. OAlOps provides insights into network performance, root cause analysis, anomaly detection, proactive alerts, and automated remediation actions.OAlOps also integrates with Aruba User Experience Insight (UXI) sensors to measure and improve user experience across wired and wireless networks.

You are in a meeting with a customer where you are asked to explain the network redundancy feature Multiple Spanning Tree (MSTP). What is the correct statement for this feature?
Correct Answer:
B
MSTP Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol. MSTP is an IEEE standard protocol for preventing loops in a network with multiple VLANs. MSTP allows multiple VLANs to be mapped to a reduced number of spanning-tree instances. configuration ID consists of two parameters: name and revision. The name is a 32-byte ASCII string that identifies the MSTP region, which is a group of switches that share the same configuration ID and VLAN- to-instance mapping. The revision is a 16-bit number that indicates the version of the configuration ID. By default, the MSTP configuration ID name is set to the switch IMC address, which is a unique identifier derived from the MAC address Media Access Control address. MAC address is a unique identifier assigned to a network interface controller (NIC) for use as a network address in communications within a network segment. of the switch.

What is indicated by a solid amber radio status LED on an Aruba AP?
Correct Answer:
D
The solid amber radio status LED on an Aruba AP Access Point (AP) Access Point (AP) is a device that connects wireless devices to a wired network using Wi-Fi or other wireless standards . APs act as transmitters and receivers of wireless signals and provide wireless coverage for a specific area . APs can operate in different modes such as root , repeater , bridge , mesh , etc . APs can also support different features such as security , QoS , roaming , load balancing , etc . APs can be standalone devices or managed by controllers or cloud services . APs can be verified by using commands such as show ap active , show ap database , show ap bss-table , etc . indicates that the radio is enabled in monitor or spectrum analysis mode. Monitor mode is a mode that allows the AP to scan all channels and collect information about wireless traffic, interference, rogue devices, etc. Spectrum analysis mode is a mode that allows the AP to scan all channels and collect information about RF Radio Frequency (RF) Radio Frequency (RF) is a term that refers to electromagnetic waves that have frequencies between 3 kHz and 300 GHz . RF waves are used for various purposes such as communication , broadcasting , radar , navigation , remote control , etc . RF waves can be modulated by changing their amplitude
, frequency , or phase to encode information . RF waves can also be affected by various factors such as attenuation , reflection , refraction , diffraction , scattering , interference , noise , etc . RF waves can be measured by using devices such as spectrum analyzers , power meters , antennas , etc . environment, noise sources, channel utilization, etc. Both modes are useful for troubleshooting and optimizing wireless performance, but they disable normal data transmission and reception on the radio.
The other options are not indicated by a solid amber radio status LED on an Aruba AP because:
✑ Not enough PoE is provided from the switch to power both radios of the AP: This
option is false because not enough PoE Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that allows network devices to receive power and data over the same Ethernet cable . PoE eliminates the need for separate power sources and cables for devices such as IP phones , cameras , access points , etc . PoE is defined in IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at standards and supports different power classes and modes . PoE can be provided by switches or injectors that act as power sourcing equipment (PSE) and received by devices that act as powered devices (PD) . PoE can be verified by using commands suchas show power inline , show power-over-ethernet , debug ip device tracking , etc . is indicated by a blinking amber power status LED on an Aruba AP, not by a solid amber radio status LED. A blinking amber power status LED means that the AP is receiving insufficient power from the switch or injector and cannot operate normally. A solid green power status LED means that the AP is receiving sufficient power from the switch or injector and can operate normally.
✑ The radio is working in mesh mode: This option is false because the radio working
in mesh mode is indicated by a solid green radio status LED on an Aruba AP, not by a solid amber radio status LED. A solid green radio status LED means that the radio is working in normal mode or mesh mode and can transmit or receive data on the assigned channel. Mesh mode is a mode that allows the AP to connect wirelessly to other APs and form a mesh network without requiring wired connections.
✑ The radio is working the 5 GHz band only: This option is false because the radio
working in the 5 GHz band only is indicated by a solid blue radio status LED on an Aruba AP, not by a solid amber radio status LED. A solid blue radio status LED means that the radio is working in dual-band mode and can transmit or receive data on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
