[All HPE7-A08 Questions]

Refer to the exhibit:

The customer would like to utilize Dynamic Segmentation for wired users in Building B. Which statement is true about the scenario?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Dynamic Segmentation (DS) requires certain capabilities on the switches to support user role assignment and traffic segmentation based on identity. The CX 6100 series switches do not support Dynamic Segmentation due to hardware and feature limitations. Therefore, they must be replaced with CX 6300 models, which support DS features natively.

Options involving GRE tunnels or VXLAN tunnels relate to traffic forwarding but do not enable DS on unsupported hardware.

Applying licenses does not upgrade hardware capabilities for DS.

C is definitely not the answer. CX 6100 can still work with the right setup.

I didn't know CX 6100 needed a license for that. Surprising!

I’m leaning towards the static VXLAN option, but I’m not entirely confident about the specifics of the CX 8325 in this context.

I think I practiced a question similar to this where licensing was crucial. Could it be the CX Advanced license?

I remember something about GRE tunnels being used for certain types of segmentation, but I'm not sure if that's the case here.
