[All HPE7-A01 Questions]

You are configuring an SVI on an Aruba CX switch that needs to have the following characteristics:

* VLANID = 25

. IPv4 address 10 105 43 1 with mask 255 255 255.0

* IPv6 address fd00:5708::f02d:4df6 with a 64 bit prefix length

* member of VRF eng

* VRF eng and VLAN 25 have not yet been created

Which command lists will satisfy the requirements with the least number of commands?

AOption A

BOption B

COption C

DOption D

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The other options either use more commands or do not create the VRF or the VLAN.

Option C uses the following commands:

vrf eng: This command creates a VRF named eng and enters the VRF configuration mode1.

vlan 25: This command creates a VLAN with ID 25 and enters the VLAN configuration mode2.

interface vlan 25: This command creates an SVI on VLAN 25 and enters the interface configuration mode3.

ip address 10.105.43.1/24 ipv6 address fd00:5780::102d:4df6/64 vrf attach eng: This command assigns an IPv4 address of 10.105.43.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and an IPv6 address of fd00:5780::102d:4df6 with a prefix length of 64 to the SVI, and attaches it to the VRF eng.

Wait, is that IPv6 address even valid?

Not sure about that, B seems more straightforward.

VLAN 25 and VRF eng need to be created first.

I’m leaning towards option B, but I’m not confident about the command syntax for the IPv4 address. I hope I remember it correctly!

I feel like option C might be the right choice, but I’m a bit uncertain about the IPv6 part. Did we cover that in detail?

I think we did a similar question where we had to set up VLANs and IP addresses. I just can't recall if the VRF needs to be created before the SVI.

I remember we practiced configuring SVIs, but I'm not sure about the exact command sequence for creating the VRF first.

This seems pretty straightforward. I think Option C has the least number of commands to satisfy all the requirements, so that's the one I'll go with.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. First, I'll create the VRF 'eng'. Then I'll create VLAN 25 and assign it to the VRF. Finally, I'll configure the SVI with the required IP addresses and settings.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the order of the commands here. Do I need to create the VLAN and VRF first, or can I just configure the SVI and have it automatically create the VLAN and VRF?

This looks like a pretty straightforward configuration task. I'll start by creating the VLAN and VRF, then configure the SVI with the required IP addresses and settings.

I'm going with C too. It's the only one that creates the VLAN and VRF before configuring the SVI. Gotta love that attention to detail!

Option C looks good, but I'm more interested in what kind of VRF 'eng' is. Probably something to do with engineering, right? *laughs*

Let's go with Option C then. It should work well for configuring the SVI.

I think so too. It makes sense for VLAN 25 to be part of that VRF.

Yeah, VRF 'eng' most likely stands for engineering.

I believe so. Option C includes the necessary commands to create the VLAN, assign the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and associate the SVI with the VRF 'eng'.
