Actual exam question for HashiCorp's Vault-Associate exam
Question #: 40
Topic #: 5
[All Vault-Associate Questions]

Which of the following describes the Vault's auth method component?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The Vault's auth method component is the component that performs authentication and assigns identity and policies to a client. It verifies a client against an internal or external system, and generates a token with the appropriate policies attached. The token can then be used to access the secrets and resources that are authorized by the policies. Vault supports various auth methods, such as userpass, ldap, aws, kubernetes, etc., that can integrate with different identity providers and systems. The auth method component can also handle token renewal and revocation, as well as identity grouping and aliasing.Reference:Auth Methods | Vault | HashiCorp Developer,Authentication - Concepts | Vault | HashiCorp Developer

I remember a practice question that talked about token generation, but I can't recall if it was specifically about root policies or something else.

I think the auth method component is about verifying clients, but I'm not sure if it generates a token with root policy or just appropriate policies.

A sounds right to me. The auth method component is all about authenticating the client and giving them the appropriate access permissions. I feel good about that one.

Okay, let me see. I know the auth method component is responsible for verifying the client, but I'm not sure about the token generation part. I'll have to review my notes on that.

D seems like an interesting idea, but I don't think that's how the Vault's auth method component works. I'm going to go with A as the best answer.

Haha, C is definitely not the correct answer. The Vault's auth method component is all about authentication, not token storage!

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Isn't the Vault's auth method component responsible for more than just generating a token? I feel like B might be the right answer.
