HP Exam HPE6-A84 Topic 7 Question 33 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE6-A84 exam
Question #: 33
Topic #: 7
[All HPE6-A84 Questions]

Refer to the scenario.

An organization wants the AOS-CX switch to trigger an alert if its RADIUS server (cp.acnsxtest.local) rejects an unusual number of client authentication requests per hour. After some discussions with other Aruba admins, you are still not sure how many rejections are usual or unusual. You expect that the value could be different on each switch.

You are helping the developer understand how to develop an NAE script for this use case.

You are helping the developer find the right URI for the monitor.

Refer to the exhibit.

You have used the REST API reference interface to submit a test call. The results are shown in the exhibit.

Which URI should you give to the developer?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

This is because this URI specifies the exact attribute that contains the number of access rejects from the RADIUS server, which is the information that the NAE script needs to monitor and trigger an alert.

A) /rest/v1/system/vrfs/mgmt/radius/servers/cp.acnsxtest.local/2083/tcp?attributes=authstatistics. This is not the correct URI because it returns the entire authstatistics object, which contains more information than the access rejects, such as access accepts, challenges, timeouts, etc. This might make the NAE script more complex and inefficient to parse and process the data.

B) /rest/v1/system/vrfs/mgmt/radius/servers/cp.acnsxtest.local/2083/tcp?attributes=authstatistics?attributes=access_rejects. This is not a valid URI because it has two question marks, which is a syntax error. The question mark is used to indicate the start of the query string, which can have one or more parameters separated by ampersands. The correct way to specify multiple attributes is to use a comma-separated list after the question mark, such as ?attributes=attr1,attr2,attr3.

C) /rest/v1/system/vrfs/mgmt/radius/_servers/cp.acnsxtest.local/2083/tcp. This is not a valid URI because it has an extra underscore before servers, which is a typo. The correct resource name is servers, not _servers. Moreover, this URI does not specify any attributes, which means it will return the default attributes of the RADIUS server object, such as name, port, protocol, etc., but not the authstatistics or access_rejects.

I'm just wondering if the RADIUS server has enough coffee to handle all those rejected requests. Maybe we should send it a care package.

The correct URI is option D. It includes the specific 'authstatistics.access_rejects' attribute that we need to monitor the number of rejected authentication requests.
