Which Aruba AP operational mode forwards client traffic directly to the local network without passing through the controller?
Answer: Bridge mode
In bridge mode, client traffic is bridged directly to the local VLAN without being encapsulated and sent to the controller.
What is the significance of the AP group 'default' in Aruba controller configuration?
Answer: APs that do not match any other AP group are placed here
The 'default' AP group serves as a catch-all; any AP that doesn't match a specific AP group assignment is placed in this group.
Which factor most directly determines whether an Aruba AP can operate as a Remote AP (RAP) across the internet?
Answer: A valid IPsec tunnel must be established to the controller
Remote APs require an IPsec tunnel back to the Mobility Controller to authenticate and receive configuration over the internet.
During an Aruba AP site survey, what is the recommended minimum RSSI threshold for voice-grade wireless coverage?
Answer: -67 dBm
-67 dBm is the commonly accepted minimum RSSI for voice-grade wireless coverage to ensure sufficient SNR for low-latency, low-loss communication.
What Aruba feature prevents a newly deployed AP from broadcasting SSIDs until it has received its full configuration from the controller?
Answer: AP whitelist enforcement
The AP whitelist requires APs to be pre-approved before they can receive configuration and begin serving clients.
An administrator wants to deploy Aruba APs across multiple buildings managed by a single controller cluster. Which feature enables APs in different buildings to roam clients seamlessly?
Answer: RF domain with a shared mobility controller
A shared RF domain across controllers allows seamless client roaming by coordinating authentication state and IP addressing.
Which Aruba AP LED pattern typically indicates that the AP has established a connection to the controller and is operating normally?
Answer: Solid green
A solid green LED on most Aruba APs indicates the AP has successfully connected to the controller and is serving clients.
