HPE6-A47 Dumps With Exact Questions and Answers

The Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) is a technology that allows two or more Aruba switches to operate as a single logical device, providing high availability, simplified management, and increased performance. VSF is supported on Aruba 5400R zl2 switches, which are modular switches that can accommodate different types of line cards and power supplies1.

The VSF fabric requires two types of connections between the member switches: VSF links and VSF ports. VSF links are the physical connections that carry the VSF control and data traffic, while VSF ports are the logical interfaces that bundle the VSF links into a single logical link. VSF links can be either 10 GbE or 40 GbE, and VSF ports can be either 10 GbE or 40 GbE1.

To create a VSF fabric with two 5406R zl2 switches, the architect needs to ensure that the switches have the compatible modules, transceivers, and cables for the VSF links and ports. According to the ArubaOS-Switch Management and Configuration Guide1, the following requirements apply for the VSF fabric:

• The switches must have the same chassis model, the same number and type of modules, and the same firmware version.
• The switches must have at least one v3 module in slot A or B. The v3 modules are the ones with the letter “M” in the part number, such as J9990A, J9991A, and J9992A. The v2 modules are the ones with the letter “A” in the part number, such as J9534A, J9535A, and J9536A.
• The switches must have the same type of transceivers and cables for the VSF links. The supported transceivers are the Aruba 10G SFP+ LC SR, the Aruba 10G SFP+ LC LR, the Aruba 40G QSFP+ LC SR4, and the Aruba 40G QSFP+ MPO SR4. The supported cables are the Aruba 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 1m DAC Cable, the Aruba 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 3m DAC Cable, the Aruba 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 1m DAC Cable, and the Aruba 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 3m DAC Cable.

Based on the exhibit, the architect has planned to use the Aruba 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 1m DAC Cable (JH234A) for the VSF links, which is a supported option. However, the architect has also selected the Aruba 24p 10GBASE-T v2 zl Module (J9536A) and the Aruba 20p 10GbE SFP+ v2 zl Module (J9535A) for the switches, which are not compatible with the VSF fabric. The architect should change these v2 modules to v3 modules, such as the Aruba 24p 10GBASE-T v3 zl2 Module (J9996A) and the Aruba 20p 10GbE SFP+ v3 zl2 Module (J9990A), to meet the VSF requirements.

The other options are not issues with the plan. Adding two QSPF+ MP0 SR4 transceivers (A) is not necessary, as the DAC cable already provides the 40 GbE connection for the VSF links. Adding stacking modules and cables © is not required, as the VSF fabric does not use the traditional stacking technology. Changing the power supply type (D) is not relevant, as the VSF fabric does not impose any restrictions on the power supply type.

The traditional guideline limits a wired VLAN to a /24 subnet, which provides enough IP addresses for 253 endpoints. You might have suggested one of three approaches: one VLAN per floor, one VLAN per building, or one VLAN per campus. The one VLAN per floor approach is not recommended because it interferes with roaming and adds complexity. If you did take this approach, the /24 subnets are not large enough for the requirements on every floor. You would need to ask for /23 subnets. The one VLAN per building approach would work if you considered each building its own RF domain. It provides roaming within a building and, if you are using a single cluster at the data center, between buildings. Ifyou deployed two MCs or clusters, one at each building, though, GRE tunneling would be required to support roaming between buildings.

The Aruba 2930F Switch Series is a stackable Layer 3 switch series that provides performance and ease of use for enterprises, small and medium-sized businesses, and branch office networks1. It comes with an enterprise-grade feature set that includes static and RIP routing, IPv6, ACLs, robust security, and QoS1. The 2930F Series supports more options for class-based Quality of Service (QoS) policies than the 2540 Series2. This feature is crucial for a customer who needs a wired network solution that can recognize and prioritize a wide array of different types of traffic, including casual Web browsing, voice, video, SAP Online, and file sharing.
