Question No. 1

A customer has an AOS 10 architecture, which includes Aruba APs. Admins have recently enabled WIDS at the high level. They also enabled alerts and email notifications for several events, as shown in the exhibit.

Admins are complaining that they are getting so many emails that they have to ignore them, so they are going to turn off all notifications.

What is one step you could recommend trying first?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: C

According to the AOS 10 documentation1, WIDS is a feature that monitors the radio spectrum for the presence of unauthorized, rogue access points and the use of wireless attack tools. WIDS can be configured at different levels, such as low, medium, high, or custom. The higher the level, the more checks are enabled and the more alerts are generated. However, not all checks are equally relevant or indicative of real threats. Some checks may generate false positives or unnecessary alerts that can overwhelm the administrators and reduce the effectiveness of WIDS.

Therefore, one step that could be recommended to reduce the number of email notifications is to change the WIDS level to custom, and enable only the checks most likely to indicate real threats. This way, the administrators can fine-tune the WIDS settings to suit their network environment and security needs, and avoid getting flooded with irrelevant or redundant alerts. Option C is the correct answer.

Option A is incorrect because sending the email notifications directly to a specific folder and only checking the folder once a week is not a good practice for security management. This could lead to missing or ignoring important alerts that require immediate attention or action. Moreover, this does not solve the problem of getting too many emails in the first place.

Option B is incorrect because disabling email notifications for Rogue AP, but leaving the Infrastructure Attack Detected and Client Attack Detected notifications on, is not a sufficient solution. Rogue APs are unauthorized access points that can pose a serious security risk to the network, as they can be used to intercept or steal sensitive data, launch attacks, or compromise network performance. Therefore, disabling email notifications for Rogue APs could result in missing critical alerts that need to be addressed.

Option D is incorrect because disabling just the Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts, as they overlap with the Infrastructure Attack Detected alert, is not a valid assumption. The Infrastructure Attack Detected alert covers a broad range of attacks that target the network infrastructure, such as deauthentication attacks, spoofing attacks, denial-of-service attacks, etc. The Rogue AP and Client Attack Detected alerts are more specific and focus on detecting and classifying rogue devices and clients that may be involved in such attacks. Therefore, disabling these alerts could result in losing valuable information about the source and nature of the attacks.


Question No. 2

A customer has an AOS 10 architecture, consisting of Aruba AP and AOS-CX switches, managed by Aruba Central. The customer wants to obtain information about the clients, such as their general category and OS.

What should you explain?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: C

Aruba Central can provide visibility and profiling of clients using the Client Insights feature, which is an AI-powered solution that uses native infrastructure telemetry to identify and classify clients based on their OS and general category. This feature does not require any additional hardware or software, such as gateways, IP helpers, or packet sniffers. It works by collecting and analyzing data from the Aruba APs and AOS-CX switches that are managed by Aruba Central. You can find more information about Client Insights in the Visibility and profiling solutions | HPE Aruba Networking page and the Clients Profile - Aruba page.


Question No. 3

Refer to the scenario.

This customer is enforcing 802.1X on AOS-CX switches to Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM). The customer wants switches to download role settings from CPPM. The ''reception-domain'' role must have these settings:

--- Assigns clients to VLAN 14 on switch 1, VLAN 24 on switch 2, and so on.

--- Filters client traffic as follows:

--- Clients are permitted full access to 10.1.5.0/24 and the Internet

--- Clients are denied access to 10.1.0.0/16

The switch topology is shown here:

How should you configure the VLAN setting for the reception role?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: A

According to the AOS-CX User Guide, one way to configure the VLAN setting for the reception role is to assign a consistent name to VLAN 14, 24, or 34 on each access layer switch and reference that name in the enforcement profile VLAN settings. This way, the switches can download the role settings from CPPM and apply the correct VLAN based on the name, rather than the ID. For example, the enforcement profile VLAN settings could be:

And the VLAN configuration on each switch could be:


Question No. 4

Refer to the scenario.

An organization wants the AOS-CX switch to trigger an alert if its RADIUS server (cp.acnsxtest.local) rejects an unusual number of client authentication requests per hour. After some discussions with other Aruba admins, you are still not sure how many rejections are usual or unusual. You expect that the value could be different on each switch.

You are helping the developer understand how to develop an NAE script for this use case.

You are helping the developer find the right URI for the monitor.

Refer to the exhibit.

You have used the REST API reference interface to submit a test call. The results are shown in the exhibit.

Which URI should you give to the developer?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: D

This is because this URI specifies the exact attribute that contains the number of access rejects from the RADIUS server, which is the information that the NAE script needs to monitor and trigger an alert.

A) /rest/v1/system/vrfs/mgmt/radius/servers/cp.acnsxtest.local/2083/tcp?attributes=authstatistics. This is not the correct URI because it returns the entire authstatistics object, which contains more information than the access rejects, such as access accepts, challenges, timeouts, etc. This might make the NAE script more complex and inefficient to parse and process the data.

B) /rest/v1/system/vrfs/mgmt/radius/servers/cp.acnsxtest.local/2083/tcp?attributes=authstatistics?attributes=access_rejects. This is not a valid URI because it has two question marks, which is a syntax error. The question mark is used to indicate the start of the query string, which can have one or more parameters separated by ampersands. The correct way to specify multiple attributes is to use a comma-separated list after the question mark, such as ?attributes=attr1,attr2,attr3.

C) /rest/v1/system/vrfs/mgmt/radius/_servers/cp.acnsxtest.local/2083/tcp. This is not a valid URI because it has an extra underscore before servers, which is a typo. The correct resource name is servers, not _servers. Moreover, this URI does not specify any attributes, which means it will return the default attributes of the RADIUS server object, such as name, port, protocol, etc., but not the authstatistics or access_rejects.

Question No. 5

Refer to the scenario.

A customer has an Aruba ClearPass cluster. The customer has AOS-CX switches that implement 802.1X authentication to ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM).

Switches are using local port-access policies.

The customer wants to start tunneling wired clients that pass user authentication only to an Aruba gateway cluster. The gateway cluster should assign these clients to the ''eth-internet" role. The gateway should also handle assigning clients to their VLAN, which is VLAN 20.

The plan for the enforcement policy and profiles is shown below:

The gateway cluster has two gateways with these IP addresses:

* Gateway 1

o VLAN 4085 (system IP) = 10.20.4.21

o VLAN 20 (users) = 10.20.20.1

o VLAN 4094 (WAN) = 198.51.100.14

* Gateway 2

o VLAN 4085 (system IP) = 10.20.4.22

o VLAN 20 (users) = 10.20.20.2

o VLAN 4094 (WAN) = 198.51.100.12

* VRRP on VLAN 20 = 10.20.20.254

The customer requires high availability for the tunnels between the switches and the gateway cluster. If one gateway falls, the other gateway should take over its tunnels. Also, the switch should be able to discover the gateway cluster regardless of whether one of the gateways is in the cluster.

You are setting up the UBT zone on an AOS-CX switch.

Which IP addresses should you define in the zone?
