HPE7-A07 Exam - Topic 3 Question 19 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE7-A07 exam

Question #: 19
Topic #: 3

You are troubleshooting a WLAN deployment with APs and gateways set up with an 802.1X tunneled SSIO. End-users are complaining that they can't connect to die enterprise SSID. Which possible AP tunnel states could be the cause of the Issue? (Select two.)

ASM_STATE_RE KEYING

BSM_STATE_SURVIVED

CSM_STATE_CONNECTED

DSM_STATE_SURVIVING

ESM_STATE_CONNECTING

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, E

When troubleshooting a WLAN with 802.1X tunneled SSID issues, AP tunnel states indicate the status of the connection between the AP and the gateway/controller. The states 'SM_STATE_REKEYING' and 'SM_STATE_CONNECTING' could indicate transitional states where the connection has not been fully established, hence users might face issues connecting to the SSID. 'SM_STATE_REKEYING' implies that the AP is in the process of re-establishing encryption keys, while 'SM_STATE_CONNECTING' indicates that the AP is trying to establish a connection with the controller or gateway. These states could lead to temporary connectivity issues until the state transitions to 'SM_STATE_CONNECTED'.

Wait, are we sure about SM_STATE_SURVIVING? Seems odd.

Totally agree, SM_STATE_CONNECTING is a big red flag.

SM_STATE_SURVIVED? Really? That doesn't sound right.

I recall a similar question where we had to identify states that could lead to connection failures. I think both SM_STATE_CONNECTING and SM_STATE_SURVIVED might be relevant here.

I feel like SM_STATE_RE_KEYING might be related to the issue too, but I need to double-check if it actually prevents users from connecting.

I think SM_STATE_CONNECTING could definitely be one of the states causing problems, but I'm not sure about the second option.

I remember we discussed the different states during our practice sessions, but I'm not entirely sure which ones indicate a connection issue.

I'm a little confused by the wording of this question. I'll need to re-read it a few times to make sure I understand which two states are the correct answer.

I'm confident I know the correct answer here. The two states that could be the issue are "SM_STATE_REKEYING" and "SM_STATE_CONNECTING".

Okay, I think I've got this. The two states that could be causing the connection issue are "SM_STATE_REKEYING" and "SM_STATE_CONNECTING". Let me double-check and submit my answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the difference between "SM_STATE_SURVIVING" and "SM_STATE_SURVIVED". I'll need to review those states carefully.

This is a good opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of NIS and automount. Make sure you read the question thoroughly and follow the steps precisely. Don't forget to specify your station number where required.

C and E for sure. If the clients can't connect, it's probably because the APs are either 'connecting' or 'connected', not in some other random state. I mean, 'SM_STATE_REKEYING'? Sounds like a new dance move or something.

I'm going to go with C and E. If the users can't connect, the APs are probably in the 'connecting' or 'connected' state, not the other options. Although, 'SM_STATE_SURVIVED' does sound like it could be a superhero alter-ego. Just saying.

Hmm, I'd go with C and D. 'Connected' and 'surviving' seem like the states that would cause connectivity issues. Who comes up with these weird state names anyway? 'Surviving'? Really?

Yes, if the APs are in the 'connecting' or 'connected' state, that could be why the clients can't connect.
