You are responding to the customer’s RFP and are at the point of documenting design decisions that were not specified in the RFP or the RFP questions.
What are valid examples of assumptions made that should be presented to the customer during the response? (Select three >
- A . The customer has technical staff that is capable of implementing the proposed equipment.
- B . Optional monitoring systems (syslog, How collectors) exist.
- C . Vendor equipment availability will meet customer project timelines.
- D . Sufficient space and power exist to rack and turn up the proposed equipment.
- E . Adequate virtual machine resources exist to successfully install required or optional management systems.
- F . The customer budget Is sufficient to afford the proposed solution.
A D E
Explanation:
In the context of responding to an RFP (Request for Proposal), it is common to make certain assumptions about the project environment when specific details are not provided. Answer A is valid because assuming the customer has technically capable staff is essential for the successful implementation of the proposed equipment; if this is not the case, additional training or services may be needed. Answer D is a reasonable assumption as well, given that physical space and power are fundamental requirements for installing new hardware; however, this should be clarified to avoid potential issues during deployment. Answer E is also a valid assumption, especially in modern network environments where management and orchestration systems often reside on virtual machines; assuming there are adequate resources for these systems is critical for the overall solution but should be verified with the customer. These assumptions are important to present to the customer to ensure there are no misunderstandings or gaps in the project planning phase, as highlighted in Aruba Campus Access documentation.
You are delivering a replacement collapsed core network proposal to the customer where the core switches will have the switched virtual interlaces (SVl) configured. The customer is not sure that a USX pair of switches will Be able to act as I tie spanning tree root in their environment.
Which options are true about spanning tiee and VSX that will help assure the customer that a VSX pair of switches are appropriate for a collapsed core? (Select two.)
- A . The primary vsx switch ts the spanning tree root and the default behavior is the links on the secondary vsx switch are blocked with sub-millisecond failover assured by vsx active-gateway.
- B . When LAG interfaces are configured on a VSX pair of switches, both switches are "operational primary" and ensure active-active LAG operation equally.
- C . Both VSX switches are configured with the system MAC and then create unique STP bridge-IDs to identify "operational primary" and "operational secondary" for proper STP functioning
- D . Aruba VSX switches support either multiple spanning tree (MSTP) or rapid per VLAN spanning tree (RPVST).
- E . The ISL between VSX switches is never part of STP domain and doesn’t send or receive BPDUs on this link and this ensures the "operational primary" and "operational secondary" switches are deterministic to other dual-attached switches.
D E
Explanation:
According to Aruba Campus Access documents and learning resources, Aruba VSX (Virtual Switching Extension) technology is designed to provide advanced high availability and redundancy features for campus networks. Specifically, answer D is correct because Aruba VSX supports both Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) and Rapid Per VLAN Spanning Tree (RPVST), ensuring efficient tree structures for VLANs and rapid convergence in case of topology changes. Answer E is also true as the Inter-Switch Link (ISL) used for the VSX pair is not part of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) domain, meaning it does not send or receive Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs). This design prevents the ISL from influencing STP calculations, ensuring that the operational roles of the primary and secondary switches in the VSX pair are clear and predictable to the rest of the network. This separation helps maintain deterministic behavior and failover capabilities in the network, aligning with the goals of a collapsed core network design.
