Aruba CX 6200 are the only switches that support VSF and VSX stacking

The correct answer is B. False. B is correct because VSF and VSX are supported across multiple Aruba CX switch families, not exclusively the CX 6200. For example, the CX 6300 series supports VSF, and platforms like the CX 6300, CX 8325, CX 8360, and CX 6400/8400 series support VSX. Additionally, the CX 6200…

Explanation

B is correct because VSF and VSX are supported across multiple Aruba CX switch families, not exclusively the CX 6200. For example, the CX 6300 series supports VSF, and platforms like the CX 6300, CX 8325, CX 8360, and CX 6400/8400 series support VSX. Additionally, the CX 6200 itself only supports VSF, not VSX - making the original statement doubly false.

Why A is wrong: It incorrectly restricts VSF and VSX support to a single product line, ignoring that Aruba's entire CX portfolio is designed around scalable stacking options distributed across multiple tiers.

Memory tip: Think of VSF as "smaller fixed-form stacking" (supported on CX 6200, 6300) and VSX as "enterprise-grade dual-node" (supported on CX 6300, 6400, 8300, 8400 series). Neither technology is exclusive to one switch family - Aruba spreads these capabilities across the portfolio by tier.
