Answer: A

Explanation:

Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) is a high-availability technology that allows two ArubaOS-CX switches to operate as a single logical device. VSX Inter-Switch Link (ISL) is a link between the two VSX switches that is used for both data plane and control plane traffic. It is recommended that the ISL link is a link aggregation with multiple 40GbE links or multiple 100GbE links to provide redundancy and bandwidth1. Therefore, this is a valid guideline for establishing a VSX ISL between two ArubaOS-CX switches.
