HPE6-A78 Exam - Topic 4 Question 31 Discussion

What is a guideline for managing local certificates on an ArubaOS-Switch?
A) Before installing the local certificate, create a trust anchor (TA) profile with the root CA certificate for the certificate that you will install
B) Install an Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) certificate to simplify the process of enrolling and re-enrolling for certificate
C) Generate the certificate signing request (CSR) with a program offline, then, install both the certificate and the private key on the switch in a single file.
D) Create a self-signed certificate online on the switch because ArubaOS-Switches do not support CA-signed certificates.

Just to clarify, self-signed certs are not ideal for production, right?

Wait, D says ArubaOS can't use CA-signed certs? That sounds off!

I vaguely recall that self-signed certificates are a thing, but I thought we were supposed to use CA-signed ones. Is option D really correct?

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like we practiced something similar to option C in our labs, generating CSRs and installing certificates.

Okay, let me think this through. Industry analysis is important for understanding the competitive landscape, so Statement 2 sounds correct. But I'm not sure about Statement 1 being the first step in the bottom-up approach.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question is asking about RTBH, which I haven't covered in depth yet. I'll need to think through the RTBH process and how the route-map would be configured to handle the customer prefix.

I remember reading about pre-compiled XPath and its benefits, but I can't quite recall if they really help prevent buffer overrun attacks by having no white space.

Option B sounds good, but I'm wondering if the OCSP certificate is necessary for a small network. Might be overkill.
