HP Exam HPE7-A07 Topic 1 Question 4 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE7-A07 exam
Question #: 4
Topic #: 1
[All HPE7-A07 Questions]

A customer has interfering devices that are seen over the air. They contact you and ask you to configure RAPIDS to help identify interfering and rogue APs. HPE Aruba Networking Central identifies a rogue AP and displays the connected switch port.

How can HPE Aruba Networking Central identify which switch port the AP is connected to?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

HPE Aruba Networking Central can identify which switch port a rogue AP is connected to by using the switch's MAC address table. The MAC address table contains the associations between MAC addresses and the switch ports to which devices (including APs) are connected. When Aruba Central detects a rogue AP, it can look up the MAC address of the rogue AP in the switch's MAC address table to find the specific switch port it is connected to. This enables network administrators to quickly locate and address the rogue AP issue.

I still think option B is more reliable, as the AP MAC address table specifically maps APs to switch ports.

That could be a possibility, as LLDP can provide information on the neighboring devices and their ports.

But what about option C) from the switch LLDP neighbors table? Could that also help identify the switch port?

I agree, because the AP MAC address table stores the mapping of MAC addresses to switch ports.

Yeah, that makes sense too. Both tables could have the information we need.

I believe it could also be from the switch MAC address table.

I agree with Corazon, using the AP MAC address table seems like the best option.
