Which of the following cloud-native platforms is Aruba’s primary unified infrastructure management solution, offering a single point of visibility for wired, wireless, and WAN?
Aruba ClearPass
Aruba AirWave
Aruba Mobility Conductor
Aruba Central
What is the primary function of Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager (CPPM) in a network deployment?
Monitoring and reporting network performance metrics
Network Access Control (NAC) and policy-based access management
Automating firmware updates for all Access Points (APs)
Centralized firewall and intrusion prevention
What is the key distinguishing characteristic of an Aruba Instant Access Point (IAP) deployment compared to a traditional Controller-based deployment?
IAPs must connect to an Aruba Central gateway to pass traffic.
IAPs only support the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
IAPs are not compatible with Wi-Fi 6 standards.
One IAP in the cluster is automatically elected as the 'Virtual Controller'.
What is the current, fully programmable, and cloud-native network operating system used on Aruba's modern core and aggregation switches?
ArubaOS-CX (AOS-CX)
Comware OS
ProVision OS
ArubaOS (AOS)
In the Aruba CX switching portfolio, which high-availability technology allows two separate switches to act as one logical switch at Layer 2 and Layer 3, reducing reliance on traditional Spanning Tree Protocol?
Aruba Stack
Virtual Switching Extension (VSX)
Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MCLAG)
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)
Which Aruba wireless feature is designed to continuously monitor and optimize a client's Wi-Fi connection by steering it to the best Access Point and radio band (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz) based on real-time metrics?
Service Router
ClientMatch
AirMatch
AppRF
Aruba's Zero Trust Security framework is heavily reliant on the ability to enforce user and device-specific policies. What is the Aruba term for applying security policies (e.g., firewall rules, QoS) based on user roles, regardless of their connection method or location?
Static VLAN assignment
Tunneling to a corporate VPN
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Dynamic Segmentation
What is the fundamental role of an Aruba Mobility Controller (MC) in a controller-based wireless network architecture?
Scanning for external network security threats.
Acting as a DNS server for all wireless clients.
Terminating AP tunnels, centralizing data traffic, and managing AP configuration.
Providing power (PoE) to all connected Access Points.
What is the primary benefit of the Aruba Activate service in the deployment process?
Performing on-site physical hardware installation and cabling.
Providing the necessary compliance certification for network devices.
Facilitating Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and inventory management.
Monitoring real-time traffic flow and bandwidth utilization.
Which technology is commonly used by Aruba Access Points to provide high-accuracy indoor location and wayfinding services?
GPS (Global Positioning System)
Near-Field Communication (NFC)
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Beacons
Infrared (IR) Sensors
