HPE6-A88 Exam - Topic 2 Question 8 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE6-A88 exam

Question #: 8
Topic #: 2

A network engineer is tasked with creating enforcement profiles for a multi-vendor environment and wants to minimize the number of enforcement profiles they need to write. Which approach should the engineer take?

AEnable SNMP services on all network devices.

BUtilize IETF attributes instead of vendor-specific attributes.

CWrite separate enforcement profiles for each device vendor type.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

IETF Attributes (like Service-Type or Tunnel-Private-Group-ID) are standard RADIUS attributes that every vendor (Cisco, Aruba, Juniper) must support. Vendor-Specific Attributes (VSAs) are unique (e.g., an Aruba-User-Role won't work on a Cisco switch). By using IETF attributes for common tasks like VLAN assignment, an engineer can create a single Enforcement Profile that works across all hardware in the building, significantly reducing administrative overhead.
