HP HPE7-A02 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

RADIUS Change of Authorization (CoA):

CoA is triggered when ClearPass determines that a client’s posture status has changed (e.g., Healthy, Quarantine).

The RADIUS enforcement policy is where you configure actions and enforcement profiles that respond to these posture changes.

Option Analysis:

Option A: Correct. RADIUS enforcement policies are used to configure actions, including triggering CoA.

Option B: Incorrect. OnGuard settings configure posture agent behavior, not enforcement rules.

Option C: Incorrect. The posture policy evaluates compliance but does not trigger CoA.

Option D: Incorrect. WEBAUTH enforcement policies are for web-based authentication, not posture-related CoA.

Hub-Spoke VPN Configuration:

HPE Aruba Central SD-WAN Orchestrator enables hub-spoke topology where branch gateways (BGWs) connect to VPN concentrators (VPNCs) located at data centers.

A key step in configuring this is defining which VPNCs the BGWs will prefer for connectivity.

The DC Preference List is configured in the BGW groups to prioritize the data centers to which BGWs connect.

Option Analysis:

Option A: Incorrect. VPN pools control IP allocation, not which branches connect to VPNCs.

Option B: Incorrect. IKE policies define key exchange mechanisms but are not part of the connection preference process.

Option C: Correct. Admins configure a DC preference list in BGW groups to determine connectivity priorities with VPNCs.

Option D: Incorrect. IPsec policies define encryption parameters at a global level, but this is not specific to the hub-spoke connection configuration.

The Network Analytics Engine (NAE) in AOS-CX switches provides intelligent monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance analysis through predefined or custom scripts. Here’s an analysis of the guidelines for NAE:

A. Each switch model has a maximum number of supported monitors, and one agent might have multiple monitors.

Correct:

Each AOS-CX switch model has hardware and software limitations, including the number of agents and monitors it supports.

Monitors are data collection points for tracking specific metrics like interface statistics, CPU usage, or custom-defined parameters.

Agents are scripts that use monitors to evaluate data, trigger actions, or generate alerts.

Since one agent can have multiple monitors, the total number of monitors might impact the scalability of agents.

B. You can install multiple scripts on a switch, but you can deploy only one agent per script.

Incorrect:

Multiple agents can be deployed from the same script if they monitor different parameters or have different configurations.

The limitation is usually related to the total number of agents and monitors supported by the switch model, not the script itself.

C. The switch will permit you to deploy as many NAE agents as you want, but they might degrade the switch functionality.

Incorrect:

AOS-CX enforces hardware and software limits on the number of agents and monitors. These limits are designed to prevent degradation of switch performance.

You cannot deploy an unlimited number of agents, as the system enforces these restrictions.

D. When you use custom scripts, you can create as many agents from each script as you want.

Incorrect:

While you can use custom scripts to create agents, the total number of agents is subject to the switch's maximum supported limits.

The scalability of agents is still bound by hardware and software constraints, even with custom scripts.
