1. Question #1

   A financial institution has an Aruba wireless system. Each floor is 19 meters by 23 meters (200 feet by 250 feet) and has 20 APs. The organization now requires dedicated Air Monitors (AMs). About how many AMs should the architect recommend per floor?

   • A. about 1 or 2 per floor
   • B. about 3 to 5 per floor
   • C. about 10 to 12 per floor
   • D. about 16 to 20 per floor

2. Question #2

   An architect needs to plan a wireless deployment. The architect conducts a physical walkthrough, but still needs more information. Which significant RF obstacle can be difficult to see visually and might require access to blueprints?

   • A. fiberglass
   • B. metal firewall
   • C. ceiling tiles
   • D. drywall
   Reveal Answer

3. Question #3

   What is one reason to recommend dedicated Air Monitors (AMs) for a customer, as opposed to APs that are doing WIPS in AP mode (hybrid)?

   • A. AMs can operate in a hybrid operation mode in which they can support clients, scan for threats, and contain detected threats.
   • B. AMs can implement wireless containment on any channel on which they detect a threat without negative impact on clients.
   • C. AMs can detect both 802.11 and non-802.11 sources of interference to the wireless network, while APs cannot.
   • D. AMs can maintain client and AP blacklists on their own without the need to communicate with a Mobility Controller (MC).

4. Question #4

   Refer to the exhibit. The customer requires fast failover if any one link or core device fails. Which additional technology should the architect plan on the core VSF fabric to meet these criteria?

   • A. OSPF graceful restart
   • B. SmartLink
   • C. BGP
   • D. VRRP
   Reveal Answer

5. Question #5

   An architect learns that a customer site is 14,307 square meters (154,000 square feet) and supports 900 employees using WiFi 5 Ghz radio. What additional information should the architect collect to create the RF plan?

   • A. number of devices used by each user
   • B. the OS used on wireless devices
   • C. whether BLE wayfinding is required
   • D. software version on Mobility Controllers (MCs)
   Reveal Answer

6. Question #6

   A customer needs a wireless solution upgrade. Among the devices that need wireless access are printers. What information about the printers does the architect need to plan the wireless solution? (Select two.)

   Select 2 answers.

   • A. whether the printers are physically locked down
   • B. the identify of users who need to access printers
   • C. whether the printers support Power over Ethernet (PoE)
   • D. whether the printers support 802.1X
   • E. the 802.11 standards supported by the printer
   Reveal Answer

7. Question #7

   Refer to the exhibit. The exhibit shows the current plan for a wired network upgrade. As much as possible, the customer wants to flatten the architecture and avoid recabling. However, each Building 2 switch must also maintain connectivity to the core if one link fails. What should the architect propose to meet the customer requirements?

   
   • A. Use two additional 2930F switches to act as an aggregation layer for Building 2; connect them to the core on 40 GbE connections.
   • B. Connect each Building 2 switch directly to the core on a single fiber strand through the use of SFP+-SR transceivers.
   • C. Combine the switches in each Building 2 closet as a VSF fabric; establish two 10 GbE connections to the core per fabric.
   • D. Extend additional fiber between the buildings so that each Building 2 switch can have a direct 10 GbE connection to the core.
   Reveal Answer

8. Question #8

   An Aruba wireless solution for a very high density (VHD) wireless solution consists of a Mobility Master (MM) and two Mobility Controllers (MCs). What is the best practice design for routing the wireless traffic?

   • A. The MCs provide the default gateway services for wireless devices and use static routers.
   • B. The MCs act at Layer2, and the MM acts as the default gateway.
   • C. The MCs act at Layer2, and core routing switches act as the default gateway.
   • D. The MCs provide the default gateway services for wireless devices and use OSPF.
   Reveal Answer

9. Question #9

   Refer to the exhibit. A customer needs to upgrade the wireless network at their campus, which has a single large building. Employees use the wireless network to access the Internet and centralized services. The building has four floors. These are the requirements: 30 APs on each floor A Mobility Master (MM)-based architecture Deployment of one Aruba 7030 Mobility Controller (MC) on each floor, with the MCs combined in a cluster for seamless client failover and roaming What should the architect explain to the customer about the proposed solution?

   • A. MCs should be deployed centrally on the same VLAN to better meet these goals
   • B. MCs in a cluster must have additional AP licenses to support APs of a failed controller
   • C. The MC 7030 does not support enough APs for the requirements
   • D. The MC 7030 only supports clusters with up to three members
   Reveal Answer

10. Question #10

    What should an architect use as a guideline to determine when to define another VLAN for wireless devices?

    • A. the WLAN or SSID, with a different VLAN for each SSID
    • B. the AP deployment, with a different VLAN for each AP that is deployed
    • C. the number of devices, with a different VLAN for each 250 devices
    • D. the employee roles, with a different VLAN for each role or department
