Exam HPE6-A73 topic 1 question 3 discussion

I think the answer is C because 8325 is not modular like 6400

The AOS-CX 6400 series is the best fit for the described requirements, providing a modular, scalable, and high-availability solution with the support for dual-control planes through VSX.

For high availability (HA), the AOS- CX 6400 supports VSX Live Upgrades and also has redundant management cards, fans, power supplies, etc. [Aruba Networks]

Yes I think the answer is C because is modular switch

C: Correction - the key part of the question says virtual switching which is VSF so the only device listed is the 6400 - disregard my previous answer.

D: the Aruba 6400 switch series does not support high-availability with dual-control planes. The Aruba 6400 series switches are fixed-configuration switches designed for access and aggregation deployments in campus networks. While they offer advanced features and performance, including support for 10GbE and 40GbE interfaces, they do not incorporate dual-control planes for redundancy and high availability. However, Aruba offers other switch series, such as the Aruba 5400R zl2 and Aruba 8400, that do provide dual-control planes for enhanced resiliency. These series are typically targeted for more demanding network environments where high availability and redundancy are critical. If you require high availability and dual-control planes, it is recommended to consider the Aruba 5400R zl2 or Aruba 8400 series switches or consult the official Aruba documentation to explore other switch models that meet your specific requirements.

Answer is C

Answer is C

Mark key words, 'access layer', 'modular', 'high-availability', so only 6400

CX6400 can VSX and could be usefull for access layer

I think it is C as the CX 6400 is an access/aggregation layer switch, has dual plane capability and is modular.

Mark key words, 'access layer', 'modular', 'high-availability', so only 6400

The answer seems to be C: (See pages 4 & 13) - 6300 can't perform dual-plane (VSX) - Neither the 8325 nor the 8400 are modular - Neither the 8325 nor the 8400 are for the access layer

C Modular for Access

C is the answer

I would have gone C. 6400 is intended for access layer and has support for VSX for dual control planes.

the Correct Answer is C
