The correct answer is D. Configure the VSX SVI using the active-gateway.

Question

Refer to the exhibit. In the given example AGG-SW1 and AGG-SW2 use CX 8325 in VSX and Edge-1 with CX 6200F. You want to avoid sub-optimal pathing and ISL traffic for the VSX and upstream routers R1 and R2. What is the HPE Aruba Networking recommended solution for the SVIs on the VSX switches connected to R1 and R2?

Explanation

In an AOS-CX VSX design, using active-gateway for SVIs ensures both VSX peers respond with the same virtual IP and virtual MAC. This avoids asymmetric routing, sub-optimal pathing, and prevents unnecessary ISL traffic between VSX peers. It is the HPE Aruba Networking recommended best practice for SVIs connected to upstream routers like R1 and R2.
