The correct answer is D. A DHCP server must be configured with the required options. HPE Aruba Networking AOS-CX documentation explains that ZTP is used to automatically load a switch configuration from a server when the switch boots from a factory-default configuration. The AOS-CX Fundamentals Guide for the 4100i, 6000, and 6100 switch series states that ZTP supports DHCP standards and DHCP options, and that support is limited to the listed DHCP options for ZTP on AOS-CX. The same guide describes setting up ZTP on a trusted network by preparing the configuration, setting up a TFTP server, and configuring DHCP-related information. Option B is incorrect because the guide references TFTP, not SFTP, for the ZTP server workflow. Option C is incorrect because the listed process does not use SCP for the initial template download. Option A is misleading because ZTP is enabled only when the switch is in factory-default configuration; the key requirement is the DHCP-based provisioning environment with the proper options.
