Question 100

A warehouse deployment needs accurate client location, but APs were installed with no stable coordinate or floor map assignment. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Maintain AP placement metadata and a verified floor plan before using location analytics.
  2. Examine probe, authentication and association negotiation rather than assuming hiding an SSID prevents discovery or guarantees security.
  3. Validate 802.11k neighbor reporting where supported by the APs and clients.
  4. Replan the 2.4 GHz channel assignments using nonoverlapping channels and measured interference.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that client localization depends on accurate reference positions and RF geometry. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: location results place known test devices within the declared validation tolerance.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a client station repeatedly attempts to join a hidden SSID but technicians attribute its failure solely to low signal. The reported fault instead arises because client localization depends on accurate reference positions and RF geometry.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a location-aware application cannot find good roam candidates although coverage overlaps because neighbor information is missing. The reported fault instead arises because client localization depends on accurate reference positions and RF geometry.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a hospital's staff WLAN has strong signal near APs but frequent retries in a wing where two adjacent APs use the same busy 2.4 GHz channel. The reported fault instead arises because client localization depends on accurate reference positions and RF geometry.

Question 101

An engineer disables protected management frames to support one old handheld despite a WLAN security requirement that mandates PMF. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Base enforcement on validated user or device attributes and assigned access role, not the SSID name alone.
  2. Move the legacy device to an approved separate compatible service or replace it while keeping mandatory PMF on the protected WLAN.
  3. Provide an appropriate supported 5 GHz service for legacy clients instead of assuming 6 GHz backward compatibility.
  4. Use approved antenna gain and transmit power settings per model and regulatory region.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying issue is that legacy-client limitations conflict with the security policy for management-frame protection. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: protected clients negotiate required PMF and the old device no longer weakens the secure SSID.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a wireless role design assumes connecting to the corporate SSID always grants internal network privileges even when a guest certificate authenticates. The reported fault instead arises because legacy-client limitations conflict with the security policy for management-frame protection.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an office installs a new 6 GHz-capable AP, but an older 802.11ac laptop cannot detect the dedicated 6 GHz-only SSID. The reported fault instead arises because legacy-client limitations conflict with the security policy for management-frame protection.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a retail site uses multiple AP models but a uniform antenna-gain configuration that overstretches permitted EIRP in some areas. The reported fault instead arises because legacy-client limitations conflict with the security policy for management-frame protection.

Question 102

A large office wants better distribution of capable clients between 2.4 and 5 GHz but all steer to 2.4 after a new RF policy. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Validate the server certificate trust chain, name and validity against client supplicant policy.
  2. Tune supported band-preference or steering settings based on client capabilities and coverage evidence.
  3. Move or add coverage to meet both RSSI and SNR goals at the actual user positions.
  4. Base enforcement on validated user or device attributes and assigned access role, not the SSID name alone.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying issue is that the new selection policy fails to guide dual-band clients to the desired 5 GHz capacity. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: capable devices use suitable bands with measured improvements and legacy clients remain connected.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an employee WLAN uses EAP-TLS and clients fail immediately after a RADIUS server certificate renewal. The reported fault instead arises because the new selection policy fails to guide dual-band clients to the desired 5 GHz capacity.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a video conference room's clients show low RSSI but good signal-to-noise ratio only near the door; the meeting area itself is below the survey target. The reported fault instead arises because the new selection policy fails to guide dual-band clients to the desired 5 GHz capacity.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a wireless role design assumes connecting to the corporate SSID always grants internal network privileges even when a guest certificate authenticates. The reported fault instead arises because the new selection policy fails to guide dual-band clients to the desired 5 GHz capacity.

Question 103

A campus core has a default route toward a failed WAN link, while the healthy standby WAN is not preferred. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Filter unauthorized default-route redistribution while allowing intended connected service routes.
  2. Configure monitored failover or route tracking so the backup next hop becomes active when the primary path fails.
  3. Check the DR/BDR election and determine whether 2-Way is normal for the non-DR peer relationship.
  4. Adjust the inbound route policy narrowly to permit intended prefixes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying issue is that the active default route remains installed despite a nonforwarding primary path. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: internet-bound traffic moves to the valid backup route after controlled primary failure.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus OSPF redistribution policy accidentally injects a default route from a disconnected guest gateway into the internal core. The reported fault instead arises because the active default route remains installed despite a nonforwarding primary path.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF neighbor becomes stuck at 2-Way on a multiaccess broadcast network and the engineer expects every pair of routers to reach Full. The reported fault instead arises because the active default route remains installed despite a nonforwarding primary path.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a BGP peer is Established but upstream routes are not accepted due to a prefix filter that rejects the approved campus CIDR. The reported fault instead arises because the active default route remains installed despite a nonforwarding primary path.

Question 104

A distribution switch cannot reach an application subnet because its static route references an incorrect next-hop IP. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Replace the wrong next hop with a reachable gateway validated against the routed adjacency.
  2. Implement a narrow supported service reachability or controlled route-leak policy for the NTP destination.
  3. Renumber or resegment overlapping prefixes or establish an explicitly designed translation boundary.
  4. Align compatible OSPF hello and dead timers at the routed link endpoints.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that the forwarding table sends application packets toward a nonexistent or wrong neighbor. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: route lookup selects the intended next hop and test traffic arrives at the subnet.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a policy requires restricted services in a management VRF to reach a shared NTP system but forbids broad connectivity to the production user VRF. The reported fault instead arises because the forwarding table sends application packets toward a nonexistent or wrong neighbor.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus advertises overlapping VLAN subnet ranges across two sites, generating unpredictable routing to both. The reported fault instead arises because the forwarding table sends application packets toward a nonexistent or wrong neighbor.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a data center's OSPF router and campus peer have matching area IDs but fail adjacency because their hello/dead timers differ. The reported fault instead arises because the forwarding table sends application packets toward a nonexistent or wrong neighbor.

Question 105

An OSPF adjacency remains in ExStart after a new routed uplink is installed with conflicting MTU settings. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Replace the wrong next hop with a reachable gateway validated against the routed adjacency.
  2. Align the supported MTU across the OSPF link and then rebuild adjacency if required.
  3. Adjust the inbound route policy narrowly to permit intended prefixes.
  4. Verify longest-prefix matching before changing administrative distances or the default route.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying issue is that OSPF database exchange can fail when peers disagree on interface MTU. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: neighbors reach Full state and routes are learned consistently.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch cannot reach an application subnet because its static route references an incorrect next-hop IP. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF database exchange can fail when peers disagree on interface MTU.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a BGP peer is Established but upstream routes are not accepted due to a prefix filter that rejects the approved campus CIDR. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF database exchange can fail when peers disagree on interface MTU.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a default route learned from dynamic routing persists despite a better directly connected route for an internal subnet. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF database exchange can fail when peers disagree on interface MTU.

Question 106

Two Aruba CX routers run OSPF on a point-to-point uplink but show no neighbor because one interface is passive. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Enable OSPF neighbor formation on the intended routed uplink while keeping user-facing interfaces appropriately passive.
  2. Configure monitored failover or route tracking so the backup next hop becomes active when the primary path fails.
  3. Renumber or resegment overlapping prefixes or establish an explicitly designed translation boundary.
  4. Restore symmetric bidirectional reachability by advertising or adding the missing return prefix.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that a passive OSPF interface advertises its network but does not send hello packets to form a neighbor. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: the two routers become Full neighbors over the approved transit link.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus core has a default route toward a failed WAN link, while the healthy standby WAN is not preferred. The reported fault instead arises because a passive OSPF interface advertises its network but does not send hello packets to form a neighbor.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus advertises overlapping VLAN subnet ranges across two sites, generating unpredictable routing to both. The reported fault instead arises because a passive OSPF interface advertises its network but does not send hello packets to form a neighbor.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a device sends packets to a remote IPv6 network, but return traffic fails because the remote router lacks the source-prefix route. The reported fault instead arises because a passive OSPF interface advertises its network but does not send hello packets to form a neighbor.

Question 107

An OSPF domain has duplicate router IDs after a lab switch image is cloned into production. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Renumber or resegment overlapping prefixes or establish an explicitly designed translation boundary.
  2. Adjust the inbound route policy narrowly to permit intended prefixes.
  3. Assign a unique router ID to the added device and reestablish correct adjacencies.
  4. Preserve the correctly learned specific route and apply longest-prefix-match forwarding.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying issue is that OSPF uses router IDs to distinguish routing speakers; duplication can corrupt peer state. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: each device displays a unique router ID and stable neighbor/LSDB state.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus advertises overlapping VLAN subnet ranges across two sites, generating unpredictable routing to both. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF uses router IDs to distinguish routing speakers; duplication can corrupt peer state.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a BGP peer is Established but upstream routes are not accepted due to a prefix filter that rejects the approved campus CIDR. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF uses router IDs to distinguish routing speakers; duplication can corrupt peer state.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch learns a specific /24 route and a broader /16 summary; engineers expect the summary to override the specific route. The reported fault instead arises because OSPF uses router IDs to distinguish routing speakers; duplication can corrupt peer state.

Question 108

An OSPF multi-area design attaches a remote area directly to another remote area without an approved backbone connection or virtual-link design. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Inspect the routed-port configuration and establish the required L3 neighbor and routing exchange.
  2. Implement a narrow supported service reachability or controlled route-leak policy for the NTP destination.
  3. Restore appropriate area 0 connectivity or use a carefully justified supported backbone extension.
  4. Restore the appropriate route before making speculative changes to permit ACLs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying issue is that standard OSPF multi-area routing relies on backbone connectivity for inter-area propagation. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: routes between approved areas are learned through the intended backbone structure.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus uplink is configured as an unnumbered Layer 3 interface but operators try to troubleshoot it as a tagged L2 trunk. The reported fault instead arises because standard OSPF multi-area routing relies on backbone connectivity for inter-area propagation.

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a policy requires restricted services in a management VRF to reach a shared NTP system but forbids broad connectivity to the production user VRF. The reported fault instead arises because standard OSPF multi-area routing relies on backbone connectivity for inter-area propagation.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an ACL allows a remote application subnet, yet a client cannot access it because the SVI has no route to that destination. The reported fault instead arises because standard OSPF multi-area routing relies on backbone connectivity for inter-area propagation.

Question 109

A campus routes guest and employee traffic in separate VRFs but a technician adds a guest static route only to the employee VRF. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Install the route or approved controlled route leak in the correct guest VRF.
  2. Restore appropriate area 0 connectivity or use a carefully justified supported backbone extension.
  3. Align compatible OSPF hello and dead timers at the routed link endpoints.
  4. Enable OSPF neighbor formation on the intended routed uplink while keeping user-facing interfaces appropriately passive.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that each VRF has an independent forwarding table and unrelated routes are not automatically shared. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: guest traffic follows only its authorized destination path without unintended employee VRF exposure.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when an OSPF multi-area design attaches a remote area directly to another remote area without an approved backbone connection or virtual-link design. The reported fault instead arises because each VRF has an independent forwarding table and unrelated routes are not automatically shared.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a data center's OSPF router and campus peer have matching area IDs but fail adjacency because their hello/dead timers differ. The reported fault instead arises because each VRF has an independent forwarding table and unrelated routes are not automatically shared.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when two Aruba CX routers run OSPF on a point-to-point uplink but show no neighbor because one interface is passive. The reported fault instead arises because each VRF has an independent forwarding table and unrelated routes are not automatically shared.

Question 110

A policy requires restricted services in a management VRF to reach a shared NTP system but forbids broad connectivity to the production user VRF. Which immediate engineering change most directly addresses this issue?

  1. Implement a narrow supported service reachability or controlled route-leak policy for the NTP destination.
  2. Configure monitored failover or route tracking so the backup next hop becomes active when the primary path fails.
  3. Adjust the inbound route policy narrowly to permit intended prefixes.
  4. Replace the wrong next hop with a reachable gateway validated against the routed adjacency.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying issue is that VRF separation blocks required shared services unless an explicit controlled path exists. This intervention addresses that cause directly. A useful result to confirm is: management devices synchronize time while unrelated user networks remain unreachable.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a campus core has a default route toward a failed WAN link, while the healthy standby WAN is not preferred. The reported fault instead arises because VRF separation blocks required shared services unless an explicit controlled path exists.

C:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a BGP peer is Established but upstream routes are not accepted due to a prefix filter that rejects the approved campus CIDR. The reported fault instead arises because VRF separation blocks required shared services unless an explicit controlled path exists.

D:

This is suited to a different condition, such as when a distribution switch cannot reach an application subnet because its static route references an incorrect next-hop IP. The reported fault instead arises because VRF separation blocks required shared services unless an explicit controlled path exists.
