HPE6-A85 Exam - Topic 2 Question 22 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE6-A85 exam
Question #: 22
Topic #: 2
[All HPE6-A85 Questions]

You have physical access to an Aruba CX-Switch with unknown/lost credentials. What are the possible steps to rebuild the credentials? (Select two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, E

To regain access to an Aruba CX switch when credentials are unknown or lost, one can press and hold the clear button, then power cycle the switch to reset the password. Additionally, using the boot profile 0 at the boot loader menu can be used to bypass the current startup configuration, which may include the unknown credentials.

Using boot profile 0 seems like a possibility, but I can't remember the exact context in which that would be applicable.

I feel like I've seen a question like this before, and I think calling support for a one-time password was an option, but I'm not confident.

I remember something about pressing and holding the clear button, but I can't recall if it was just that or if there was more to it.

I think connecting via the console and power cycling the switch sounds familiar, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right first step.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know vSphere with Tanzu is related to Kubernetes, but I'm not sure about the specific requirements. I'll have to guess and hope I get it right.

I'm a bit confused on this question. The OSI model has so many different layers, it's hard to keep track of which hardware components work at which layer. I'll have to review my notes to refresh my memory before answering.

Option E is like a secret cheat code. I wonder if it involves some kind of matrix-style hacking to rebuild the credentials.

C is the way to go. Pressing the reset button for 2 seconds is very specific, so it must be the right answer.

D is a good backup plan, but I'd try the DIY methods first before calling support. Seems like a lot of extra work.
