  1. What is the purpose of Aruba's 'band steering' feature?

    Answer: To prioritize 5 GHz-capable clients over 2.4 GHz to reduce congestion

    Band steering encourages dual-band clients to connect on the less-congested 5 GHz band by delaying or suppressing probe responses on 2.4 GHz.

  2. In Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager, what is an 'Enforcement Profile' used for?

    Answer: Specifying what access or attributes to grant after a policy match

    An Enforcement Profile defines the RADIUS attributes, VLAN, or role to be returned to the NAS device when a Policy Manager rule is matched.

  3. Which Aruba AP operating mode allows an AP to simultaneously serve clients AND monitor the RF spectrum for threats?

    Answer: Hybrid AP mode

    Hybrid AP mode lets an Aruba AP serve clients on one radio while using the other radio for air monitoring and WIDS functions simultaneously.

  4. What is the purpose of the CAPWAP protocol in Aruba campus AP deployments?

    Answer: To carry control and data traffic between APs and the Mobility Controller

    CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points) is the standardized protocol Aruba uses to carry both control messages and optionally data traffic between APs and controllers.

  5. In Aruba Instant, if the Virtual Controller fails, what happens to client connectivity?

    Answer: A new Virtual Controller is automatically elected and clients experience minimal disruption

    If the Virtual Controller fails, the remaining IAPs hold an election to select a new Virtual Controller, restoring cluster management with minimal disruption to connected clients.

  6. Which Aruba feature uses application identification to prioritize or block specific app traffic on the wireless network?

    Answer: AppRF

    AppRF uses deep packet inspection to classify application traffic and allows administrators to apply QoS, rate limiting, or blocking policies per application.

  7. What distinguishes an Aruba 'AP group' from an individual AP configuration in the Mobility Controller?

    Answer: AP groups allow common configuration (SSIDs, radio settings) to be applied to multiple APs simultaneously

    AP groups act as templates on the Mobility Controller, letting administrators define shared SSIDs, radio profiles, and policies that apply to all APs assigned to the group.
