Question

You are configuring ArubaOS-CX switches to tunnel client traffic to an Aruba Mobility Controller (MC). What should you do to enhance security for control channel communications between the switches and the MC?

Options

  • ACreate one UBT zone for control traffic and a second UBT zone for clients.
  • BConfigure a long, random PAPI security key that matches on the switches and the MC.
  • Cinstall certificates on the switches, and make sure that CPsec is enabled on the MC
  • DMake sure that the UBT client vlan is assigned to the interface on which the switches reach the

Explanation

When configuring ArubaOS-CX switches to tunnel client traffic to an Aruba Mobility Controller (MC), securing the control channel communications is crucial to prevent unauthorized access and ensure data integrity. Option B is the correct answer as it involves configuring a long, random PAPI security key that matches on both the switches and the MC. The PAPI (Policy Access Point Interface) protocol is used for secure communication between Aruba devices, and employing a robust, randomized security key significantly enhances the security of the control channel. This setup prevents potential interception or manipulation of the control traffic between the devices.
