What is the primary way that aruba switches support a unified infrastructure approach within aruba ESPx'x' - own account?

Question

Options

• AThe switches support dynamic segmentation that enforces consistent role-based policies for wired
• BThe switches support the same Air Slice technology as the APs to ensure consistent handling of
• Cswitches are controlled by the same aruba fabric composer (AFC) that also controls aruba APs
• DSwitches are discovered and controlled by aruba gateways, just as APs are discovered by

• A
  82% (14)
• C
  6% (1)
• D
  12% (2)

Explanation

Option A is correct because Aruba's dynamic segmentation is the cornerstone of its unified infrastructure strategy within ESP (Edge Services Platform). It allows wired switches to enforce the same role-based access policies that wireless APs use, meaning a user's identity-driven policy follows them regardless of how they connect - wired or wireless - creating a truly unified experience.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B - Air Slice is a wireless-specific QoS technology for APs; it does not extend to wired switch infrastructure.
• C - Aruba Fabric Composer (AFC) manages data center switching fabrics (ArubaOS-CX); it does not control APs. AP management runs through Aruba Central or mobility controllers.
• D - Aruba gateways do not "discover and control" switches the way they relate to APs. Switches are managed through their own path (Aruba Central), not subordinated to gateways.

Memory tip: Think "same role, any port." Dynamic segmentation means your security role follows you from Wi-Fi to an Ethernet jack - the policy is unified, so the infrastructure is unified. If you remember that ESP's goal is identity-based policy everywhere, Option A is always the answer when asked about unifying wired and wireless.
