The correct answer is A. No. The proposed design does not meet the capacity requirements. Nine CX 6200M access switches provide at most 9 × 48 = 432 edge ports (even fewer if it's the 46G variant), which is below the 500-port capacity requirement.

Question

A customer tasked you with creating a new design for the IDFs in a large office building. A junior member of your staff took all of the technical requirements and produced a design to meet those requirements. You were asked to review the portion of the design below:

CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS:

preference for stackable switches Each closet should contain a single virtual switch. dual 10Gbps fiber uplinks from each closet capacity for 500 edge ports in each closet; no additional capacity required lowest-cost AOS-CX switch that meets all requirements PROPOSED DESIGN:

nine (9) AOS-CX 6200M (R8Q69A: Class4 PoE 4SFP+ switch (R8Q68A) HPE Aruba Networking 6200M 46G 4SFP+ switch) in each closet switches configured in a VSF (Virtual Switching Framework) stack, with auto-stacking enabled uplinks configured on the first and last members of the stack Does the proposed solution meet the technical requirements?

Options

  • ANo. The proposed design does not meet the capacity requirements.
  • BYes. The proposed design meets the customer's requirements.
  • CNo. The proposed design does not meet the requirements for uplink connectivity.
  • DNo. The proposed design is not the lowest-cost AOS-CX switch for this project.

Explanation

Nine CX 6200M access switches provide at most 9 × 48 = 432 edge ports (even fewer if it's the 46G variant), which is below the 500-port capacity requirement. All other requirements (stackable single virtual switch via VSF, dual 10G uplinks, and lowest-cost stackable CX platform) are met.
