HPE Network Data Center Professional Architect Sample Questions:
1. During a design workshop, the customer states their applications are highly sensitive to latency and jitter, such as real-time market data feeds. What design change might you propose?
A) Reduce the number of spine switches to simplify the topology
B) Add additional aggregation tiers to increase path diversity
C) Use store-and-forward switches exclusively to guarantee accuracy over speed
D) Implement a non-blocking, low-latency spine-leaf fabric with minimal oversubscription and hardware timestamping/PTP support if needed
2. Waratah Hospital, based in Australia, is planning to move many data center services to new facility. (The remaining legacy data center will not be part of this project.) Waratah Hospital hired an external consultant to assist with the new data center network design.
Based on the requirements for the data center network infrastructure, the external consultant has created a high-level design. The below summarizes the content of the design document.
Requirements and information:
- Six racks in the data center room (single row).
- Redundant Top of Rack leaf switches with back-to-front cooling in each rack, providing 10/25 Gbps connectivity to servers, storage, and other devices.
- Four 100 GbE uplinks per leaf switch.
- The customer requested to install all switch ports facing the back of the rack racks (hot aisle.)
- OOB management for servers, storage, and network has to be provided through an external switch with back-to-front cooling. This switch has to be included in the solution. One OOB switch provides connectivity for two racks.
- Core equipment for the OOBM network is being reused.
- Middle-of-row spine switches.
-The data center should connect to the hospital building with links that provide 400 Gbps.
- Internet access is provided through an existing firewall cluster with two firewalls, each firewall in one data room. The second firewall is operating in standby mode, VRRP is utilized on the firewalls for failover. The data center network should connect to these firewalls with links that total
100 Gbps.
- The external link is a dark fiber direct link based on single-mode fiber (OS2). The distance to the main hospital 1.5 KM. The links will terminate on two core switches in the hospital.
The customer also requires:
- 99.999% uptime for this life-critical environment.
- Planned and unplanned downtime has to be minimized.
- Software upgrades are only allowed once per year with close to zero downtime.
- All life-critical resources are accessed locally, and all resources exist within the hospital campus.
- Waratah Hospital requires a highly secure environment for the data center. Encrypted wire speed connectivity between the data room and the hospital is a must-have because the link between the buildings crosses a public road.
- Waratah Hospital has a mix of virtualized (vSphere) servers. Nutanix storage, bare metal servers, backup servers and other devices.
In the past, the hospital has had a security breach that resulted in data loss, network downtime, and identity theft.
Refer to the scenario. You have learned that the customer needs to extend two VRFs between the new data center facility and the hospital. To meet with the requirements of the scenario and general best practices, what should you recommend for connecting border leaf switches to the hospital core?
A) 4x 100 Gbps links, establishing a full mesh between two border leaf switches and two hospital core switches. Each link should have two subinterfaces acting as routed only ports.
B) 8x 50Gbps links that are all routed only ports (ROPs). These ports establish two full meshes between two border leaf switches and two hospital core switches.
C) 4x 100 Gbps links that are routed only ports. Border leaf switch 1 has two ports that connect to hospital core switch 1. Border leaf switch 2 has two ports that connect to hospital core switch 2.
D) 8x 50Gbps links that establish two full meshes between two border leaf switches and two hospital core switches. The 4 links that connect to the hospital core 1 in one VSX LAG, and the other 4 links are in another VSX LAG.
3. Your long-time customer has just acquired a company with 3,500 employees and they are planning on bringing the new data center sites up to their standards. They have asked for a bill of materials given only locations and port counts at the data center sites. What are valid assumptions that should be documented in the proposal? (Choose two.)
A) The acquired company's physical data cable plant at the new location will meet the technical requirements of the new solution.
B) The IP segments in the existing data centers will remain the same as the acquired company.
C) The implementation project manager will be from the acquired company
D) The acquired company's existing contract staff will be hired as full-time employees
E) The power at the acquired company's data center locations is sufficient for the proposed equipment.
4. A customer wants to migrate from a traditional VLAN-based data center network to a VXLAN/EVPN fabric with minimal disruption. What is an appropriate first step in the design process?
A) Immediately decommission the existing VLAN-based network
B) Require the customer to migrate all workloads to a public cloud instead
C) Skip EVPN control plane design since VXLAN alone is sufficient
D) Design a coexistence strategy using a VXLAN-to-VLAN gateway (border leaf) to bridge legacy and new segments during migration
5. Can EVPN/VXLAN Fabrics be configured to protect against Layer 2 loops?
A) Yes, using Loop Protection over VXLAN.
B) No, AOS-CX does not support such capability.
C) No, a Layer 2 loop on VXLAN Infrastructure is not possible.
D) Yes, using Spanning-Tree over VXLAN
