HPE6-A78 - Aruba Certified Network Security Associate Exam

To differentiate access control for faculty and students, the best approach is to use roles. By creating two roles - "faculty" and "student" - and applying the appropriate firewall policies to each, the university can enforce different access rules for each group. This is more efficient than managing multiple VLANs or WLANs because it allows for role-based access control, which is directly tied to user identity rather than just IP addresses or the network they are connected to.QUESTION NO: 105

The monitoring admin has asked you to set up an ArubaOS-Switch to meet these criteria:

• Send logs to a SIEM Syslog server at 10.4.13.15 at the standard UDP port (514)

• Send a log for all events at the "warning" level or above

The switch did not have any "logging" configuration on it. You then entered this command:

ArubaOS-Switch(config)# logging 10.4.13.15 udp

What should you do to finish configuring to the requirements?

A. Add categories (system-modules) at the global level.

B. Specify "warning" as the global level.

C. Ask for the Syslog password and configure it on the switch.

D. Configure logging as a debug destination.

Answer: B

To set up an ArubaOS-Switch to send logs to a SIEM syslog server at the specified criteria, you would need to specify the level of events that should be logged. Since the requirement is to log all events at the "warning" level or above, you should specify the syslog level after the logging server IP and port. The command should look like this:

ArubaOS-Switch(config)# logging 10.4.13.15 ArubaOS-Switch(config)# logging trap warning

This would set up the switch to send logs to the syslog server at the IP address 10.4.13.15 using the default UDP port (514), for all events at the "warning" level or above.

EST (Enrollment over Secure Transport) is a protocol designed to streamline the certificate management process. It enables automated and secure enrollment, renewal, and revocation of digital certificates, which significantly reduces the management overhead typically associated with digital certificates. With EST, administrators can more easily manage certificates' lifecycle, ensuring that expired certificates are promptly replaced or renewed without significant manual intervention.

The primary reason for adding a "Log Settings" definition in the ArubaOS Diagnostics > System > Log Settings page is to configure the Syslog server settings for the server to which the Mobility Controller (MC) forwards logs for a particular category and level. This setting enables the MC to send detailed logs to a Syslog server for centralized logging and monitoring, which is essential for troubleshooting, security analysis, and compliance with various policies.References:
