An HPE Aruba Networking 9x00 gateway is part of an HPE Aruba Networking Central group that has the settings shown in the exhibit. What would cause the

gateway to drop traffic as part of its IDPS settings?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

In the exhibit, the HPE Aruba Networking Central settings for the 9x00 gateway show that traffic inspection is enabled, and the gateway is set to operate in IDS (Intrusion Detection System) mode with the fail strategy set to 'Block'. This configuration means that the gateway will drop traffic if it matches a rule in the active ruleset.

1.Active Ruleset: The ruleset version 9861 is active, and the gateway is configured to automatically update the ruleset daily.

2.Traffic Matching Rules: When traffic matches a rule in the active ruleset, it is flagged as suspicious or malicious.

3.Block Mode: Since the fail strategy is set to 'Block', any traffic that matches a rule in the active ruleset will be dropped to prevent potential threats.

I agree, B is the most likely cause here.

Surprised that C is an option, how often does the IDPS engine actually fail?

A failing VPN connection wouldn’t cause traffic drops, right?

I think D could also be a factor, anomalous behavior is a big red flag.

Definitely B, traffic matching a rule is a common reason.

I think it could be either B or D, but I’m leaning towards D since anomalous behavior usually triggers more alerts.

I feel like I’ve seen something similar before, but I’m confused about whether anomalous behavior or matching rules would be the main cause.

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to identify traffic drops due to specific rules. I think option B might be the right answer.

I remember studying IDPS settings, but I'm not entirely sure how they interact with traffic.
