Discuss HP HPE7-A01 Exam Topic 2 Question 17

Which statements are true regarding a VXLAN implementation on Aruba Switches? (Select two.)

AMTU size must be increased beyond the default

BVNIs encapsulate and decapsulate VXLAN traffic

CVTEPs encapsulate and decapsulate VXLAN traffic

DThey are only available for datacenter switches (CX 8k, 9k,10k)

EAll Aruba CX switches support VXLAN.

Suggested Answer: C

This is because option C shows how to create a single group in Central with different configuration methods defined for each device type. For example, you can create a group with the name Group1, and within this group, you can enable template-based configuration method for switches and UI-based configuration method for Instant APs and Gateways. Aruba Central identifies both these groups under a single name (Group1). If a device type in the group is marked for template-based configuration method, the group name is prefixed with TG (TG Group1).You can use Group1 as the group ID for workflows such as user management, monitoring, reports, and audit trail2.

VNIs are just for identification, not encapsulation.

Margurite 11 months ago

All Aruba CX switches supporting VXLAN sounds too good to be true.

Elvera 11 months ago

Wait, are VXLANs really only for datacenter switches?

Lon 12 months ago

I agree, VTEPs are key for VXLAN traffic.

Nell 12 months ago

MTU size definitely needs to be increased!

Yolando 12 months ago

I feel like I saw a question about VXLAN support on different Aruba switches, but I can't remember if all CX models support it or just specific ones.

Kimberlie 1 year ago

I'm pretty confident that VTEPs are the ones that handle the encapsulation and decapsulation of VXLAN traffic.

Fausto 1 year ago

I think VNIs are related to how VXLAN traffic is identified, but I can't recall if they actually encapsulate or decapsulate it.

Rebeca 1 year ago

I remember something about needing to increase the MTU size for VXLAN, but I'm not sure if it's a must or just recommended.

Rossana 1 year ago

Ah, this is a good test of my VXLAN knowledge. I'll draw on my experience to identify the correct statements about Aruba's VXLAN implementation.

Casey 1 year ago

I'm a bit unsure about the specifics of VXLAN on Aruba switches. I'll try to eliminate the options that don't sound right and focus on the ones that seem more likely to be true.

Jaime 1 year ago

Okay, let's think this through. I know VXLAN is used for network virtualization, but the details on Aruba switches are a bit fuzzy for me.

Ranee 1 year ago

Hmm, this VXLAN question seems straightforward, but I want to make sure I understand the key points before answering.

Edison 1 year ago

I've worked with VXLAN before, so I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. I'll carefully read through the options and select the two that seem most accurate.

Felicia 1 year ago

This question seems to be testing my understanding of intangible assets and how they are valued. I'll need to carefully review the details and think through the key concepts.

Charlie 1 year ago

This looks like a straightforward question. I'd recommend Power BI and Power Apps to meet the requirements of visualizing the data and providing access from mobile and desktop.

If you get the VXLAN question wrong, do they make you wear the cone of shame?

E) All Aruba CX switches support VXLAN.

No, they don't make you wear the cone of shame for getting it wrong.

Wait, did you say VXLAN? I thought we were talking about VLAN. This is why I always bring my reading glasses to these exams.

Leota 2 years ago

D is definitely false. VXLAN is not limited to just datacenter switches. Even my grandma's toaster oven can run VXLAN these days.

Florinda 2 years ago

Hmm, I think E is also true. All Aruba CX switches should support VXLAN, not just the datacenter ones.

Nichelle 2 years ago

I'm pretty sure B and C are the correct answers. VXLAN encapsulation and decapsulation happens at the VTEP, not the VNI.

Mona 2 years ago

I'm not sure about E. Do all Aruba CX switches really support VXLAN?

Kris 2 years ago

I agree with Deangelo. The MTU size needs to be increased for VXLAN and VTEPs handle encapsulation and decapsulation.

Deangelo 2 years ago

I think A and C are true.
