HPE7-A01 Exam - Topic 5 Question 16 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE7-A01 exam
Question #: 16
Topic #: 5
[All HPE7-A01 Questions]

A company deployed Dynamic Segmentation with their CX switches and Gateways After performing a security audit on their network, they discovered that the tunnels built between the CX switch and the Aruba Gateway are not encrypted. The company is concerned that bad actors could try to insert spoofed messages on the Gateway to disrupt communications or obtain information about the network.

Which action must the administrator perform to address this situation?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Loop protection is a feature that detects and prevents loops in layer 2 networks. Loop protection can be enabled on ports, LAGs, or VLANs. When loop protection is enabled, the switch sends periodic loop protection messages on the interface and expects to receive them back.If a loop protection message is received back on the same interface, it indicates a loop and the switch takes an action to disable the interface or block traffic on it3. The loop-protect re-enable-timer command is used to configure the length of time the switch waits before re-enabling an interface that was disabled due to loop detection.The default value is 0, which means that the interface remains disabled until manually re-enabled3.To automate the process of resuming the port operational state once a loop on a client port is cleared, the loop-protect re-enable-timer command can be used with a non-zero value on the interface range that includes the client ports3. Therefore, answer C is correct.

I heard Enhanced PAPI security is the best choice for this!

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to choose between different security modes. I feel like Enhanced PAPI security might be the right choice here.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. The key is to identify the specific security vulnerability (unencrypted tunnels) and then select the option that addresses that, which looks like "Enable Secure Mode Enhanced".

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. The question mentions "Dynamic Segmentation" and "CX switches and Gateways" which I'm not super familiar with. I'll need to think through the networking concepts here carefully.

This seems like a straightforward security issue. I think the answer is probably to enable some kind of enhanced security feature to encrypt the tunnels and prevent spoofing.

Okay, I've got a plan. Based on the details provided, I think the best approach is to enable the "Enhanced PAPI security" option. That should help secure the communication between the CX switch and Aruba Gateway.

Okay, let's think this through. The question says the tunnels aren't encrypted, so I'd say C is the way to go. Can't be too safe when it comes to security, am I right?
