Actual exam question for HP's HPE7-A01 exam

Question #: 9
Topic #: 5

Your customer currently has Iwo (2) 5406 modular switches with MSTP configured as their core switches. You are proposing a new solution. What would you explain regarding the Aruba CX VSX switch pair when the Primary VSX node is replaced and the system MAC is replaced?

AVSX will select the MAC address from a node that is the lower ID.

BConfigure vMAC on the Primary VSX node under VSX to retain MAC after hardware replacement.

CVSX will select the MAC address from a node that is a higher ID.

DDuring the initial VSX configuration, the system-mac is assigned with a fixed MAC based on VSX ID.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

The system-mac command is used to configure a fixed MAC address for the VSX system. This MAC address is used as the source MAC address for all routed traffic from the VSX node.The system-mac command is highly recommended for preventing traffic disruptions when the primary VSX switch restores after the secondary VSX switch, such as during a primary switch hardware replacement or a power outage2. During the initial VSX configuration, the system-mac is assigned with a fixed MAC based on VSX ID.The system-mac command can be used to change this default MAC address if needed2. Therefore, answer D is correct.
