HPE6-A73 Aos-cx Practice Questions
The free HPE6-A73: Aruba Certified Switching Professional questions that deal with aos-cx, with answers and explanations. The full bank and the timed practice test cover every topic the exam asks about.
Question #1
An administrator is defining a VSX LAG on a pair of AOS-CX switches that are defined as primary and secondary. The VSX LAG fails to establish successfully with a remote switch; however, after verification, the remote switch is configured correctly. The administrator narrows down the problem to the configuration on the AOS-CX switches. What would cause this problem?
Correct answer: C
Explanation
VSX LAG member interfaces must be layer-2 links, so leaving them in layer-3 mode prevents the multi-chassis LAG from coming up with the remote switch.
Question #2
What must a network administrator implement in order to run an NAE script on an AOS-CX switch?
Correct answer: D
Explanation
An NAE script only runs once it is instantiated as an agent on the switch; the agent is the running instance that monitors and applies the script logic.
Question #3
What is correct regarding rate limiting and egress queue shaping on AOS-CX switches?
Correct answer: A
Explanation
you could apply egress queue shaping to the high priority queues to prevent starvation of low priority queues. Egress queue shaping allows you to apply a maximum bandwidth to a priority queue, as well as a burst size. The port buffers excess traffic up to the burst size and sends the buffered traffic at the max rate, smoothing out bursts while also preventing the high priority queue from exceeding its maximum rate and starving out lower priority queues.
Question #6
When an AOS-CX switch uses a temporary copy of the Configuration State database, what kind of analysis does NetEdit perform to ensure that the configuration is correct?
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Validation processes + Syntax validation – When: while typing – What: command syntax including in-line help + Semantics validation – When: VALIDATE button (in multi-editor) or before DEPLOY – What: configuration consistency + Conformance validation – When: while editing – What: compliance with conformance rules: corporate policies, minimum connectivity requirements, etc. + Change validation – When: during DEPLOY (before and after configuration deployment) – What: compares device state before and after changes are applied (using show commands)
Question #7
An administrator implements interim accounting for guest users so that ClearPass can track the amount of bandwidth that guests upload and download. Guests that abuse bandwidth consumption should be disconnected from the network. The administrator configures the following on the AOS-CX access switches: After performing this configuration, the administrator notices that guest users that have exceeded the guest bandwidth limit are not being disconnected. Upon further investigation, Access Tracker in ClearPass indicates a disconnect CoA message is being sent to the AOS-CX switch. What is causing this issue?

Correct answer: A
Explanation
ClearPass is sending the disconnect CoA, so the failure is at the switch: RADIUS dynamic authorization (CoA) must be enabled before the switch will accept and act on the message.
Question #8
What is correct regarding the configuration of ACLs on AOS-CX switches?
Correct answer: C
Explanation
AOS-CX ACLs use wildcard masks so a single entry can match a range of IP addresses. Numbered ranges and prefix-list style route matching are not how AOS-CX ACLs are defined.
Question #10
How should a network administrator add NAE scripts and implement NAE agents that will run on an AOS-CX switch?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
NAE scripts are uploaded and their agents created from the AOS-CX switch's own web interface, where the resulting monitoring graphs are also displayed.
