Question 30
At the Tarnbridge campus network, a customer assumes switching hardware automatically includes every Aruba Central management feature without subscription planning. Which underlying issue most directly explains this situation?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The architectural weakness is that central management eligibility depends on product software and contracted entitlements rather than cabling alone. It can be addressed through the controlled change to confirm Central supported device capabilities management licensing and operational scope before purchase. This result addresses the stated challenge at the Tarnbridge campus network.
Incorrect Answers
The option states: Access closets and campus cores have different interface power redundancy and operational requirements. By contrast, the current situation is governed by: central management eligibility depends on product software and contracted entitlements rather than cabling alone. Choosing this alternative would leave the question’s specific root-cause explanation unresolved.
The offered alternative states: Uncoordinated parallel ports may create loops or remain individual links rather than a single aggregate. The reported facts point to a different controlling condition: central management eligibility depends on product software and contracted entitlements rather than cabling alone. The alternative does not directly settle the required root-cause explanation.
Inconsistent VLAN and network addressing produces reachability and isolation faults during deployment. In this question, the decisive issue is: central management eligibility depends on product software and contracted entitlements rather than cabling alone. That is why the offered option is not the most direct root-cause explanation.
