HPE7-A07 Exam - Topic 1 Question 8 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE7-A07 exam

Question #: 8
Topic #: 1

Exhibit.

After configuring VRRP between sw-1 and SW-2. you notice that both switches are showing as active. What could be the reason for this issue?

AVRRP preemptive mode is disabled.

BSW-1 cam reach SW-2 on VLAN 10.

CBoth switches are configured as VRRP 'primary.'

DSW-2 has no priority configurations for VRRP 1.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

In VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol), only one switch should be the primary (master) for a given virtual IP address, with the other switches being backups. If both switches are showing as active, it suggests a misconfiguration where both are set to act as the primary for the same VRRP group. The exhibits provided indicate that both switches believe they are the active or primary for the VRRP group, which is an incorrect configuration.

SW-2 not having priority set is a big red flag!

VRRP preemptive mode being off can cause confusion too.

Wait, are you sure about that? Could it be something else?

Both switches can't be primary, that's a classic mistake.

I vaguely remember that if both switches are configured the same way, it could lead to this situation. Maybe they are both set as primary?

I feel like the priority settings on SW-2 could be the problem, but I can't recall if that alone would cause both to show as active.

I think I saw a similar question where both switches were active because they were both set as primary. That might be the issue here too.

I remember something about VRRP configurations, but I'm not sure if preemptive mode being disabled would cause both switches to be active.

This seems straightforward. The issue is likely that both switches are configured as VRRP 'primary.' I'll need to ensure that only one switch is set as the primary, and the other is configured as the backup.

Ah, I see. If SW-2 doesn't have any priority configurations for VRRP 1, that could be the reason why both switches are active. I'll verify the VRRP configurations on both devices.

I'm a bit confused here. Is it possible that VRRP preemptive mode is disabled? That could be causing the problem. I'll make sure to check that setting.

Okay, let me think this through. If both switches are configured as primary, that would explain the issue. I'll double-check the VRRP priority settings on each switch.

Hmm, this looks tricky. I'll need to carefully review the VRRP configuration details to figure out why both switches are showing as active.

Wait, what? Resize the logical volume and filesystem? I'm not sure I understand how to do that. I'll need to review the lecture notes and examples again to make sure I'm doing this correctly.

Okay, I think I've got this. The question is asking for valid commands, so I'll need to focus on the specific syntax and capabilities of EOS 4.14.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know "intra-" means inside, but I'm not totally clear on the different tissue spaces in the body. I'll have to think this through carefully.
