Question #41
You are configuring OSPF between two CX switches but cannot see any neighbors.

Based on the output, how would you fix the problem?
- A . Remove the max-metric router-lsa on-startup to allow faster formation of adjacency.
- B . Configure ip ospf network broadcast on the VLAN 182 interface.
- C . Configure no ip ospf cost 100 on the VLAN 182 interface.
- D . Configure no passive-interface vlan182 on the switch.
Correct Answer: D
D
Explanation:
OSPF neighbors not forming adjacency and stuck in the 2WAY state typically indicates that the interface is set to passive mode, preventing OSPF Hello packets from being sent or received on that interface.
Removing passive mode on VLAN 182 allows OSPF Hello messages to be exchanged and adjacency to form.
Options involving network type or costs do not affect adjacency states related to passive interfaces.
The max-metric router-lsa on-startup affects LSA advertisements, not adjacency formation.
Therefore, the fix is to configure no passive-interface vlan182.

Question #42
After onboarding three new AOS-10 gateways using the full-setup method into the same HPE Aruba Networking Central group, a customer cannot log in to one of the gateways using the HPE Aruba Networking Central remote console due to an incorrect password.
What is causing this issue?
- A . The admin password created during the full-setup process is not configured to allow the remote console access
- B . The admin password created at the HPE Aruba Networking Central group level has expired
- C . The admin password created using full-setup does not match the global HPE Aruba Networking Central admin password
- D . The admin password created during the full-setup process does not match the HPE Aruba Networking Central group admin password
Correct Answer: D
