Which solution fulfills the customer's requirements?
A global cruise line company must refresh its current fleet. It will refresh the ship’s “insides” to be cost-effective and improve sustainability, replacing all WLAN/LAN hardware. During this refresh, the company will not change its existing security requirements. The CIO also wants to minimize unused switch ports. Any future expansion will require a hardware refresh. They will begin with the smallest ship, with a maximum of 800 guests.
Each ship has a LAN infrastructure comprising two core switches, up to 10 redundant distribution switches, and up to 500 access switches (400 cabins and 100 technical rooms). The core switches are in the ship’s MDF, and the distribution switches are in the IDFs. Each cabin and technical room receives one individual access switch.
The ship’s cabling infrastructure will not be refreshed. Every IDF is connected to the MDF by SMF, with two pairs available for the interconnect between core and distribution. The SM fiber between the MDF and IDF is less than 300 meters (980 ft) long and is OS1. Each cabin is connected to the IDF by one OM2 pair, with a maximum length of 60 meters (200 ft). Each technical room is connected to the IDF by one OM2 pair, with lengths from 100 to 150 meters (320 to 500 ft).
For every cabin/technical room, the customer wants to replace the existing fan-less 2530/2540 switches without changing the requirements, except that the uplink to the distribution switch must be upgraded to 10GbE to accommodate increased network traffic, and the technical rooms require redundant power.
The WLAN infrastructure will be refreshed 1:1, with no new cabling or AP locations. The WLAN infrastructure uses 200/300 series indoor and outdoor APs running InstantOS (fewer than 300 APs), and the customer has no WLAN requirement changes.
The cruise line company will replace its existing Internet connection before the LAN/WLAN refresh. The new Internet connection will provide 99.8% uptime, required to keep paid guest Wi-Fi operational. With this new Internet connection, the CIO wants to base the design on Aruba’s ESP architecture because the Internet connection is guaranteed.
Based on best practices, what optic type should be recommended for the connection between the IDF and the technical rooms?
Match each deployment type with its estimated number of APs.
What is the basic difference between a main distribution framework (MDF) closet and an intermediate distribution framework (IDF) closet?
Select the appropriate fiber-optic standard for each listed link speed.
Under which condition is a Mode Conditioning Patch Cable necessary?
A large multinational financial institution has engaged you to design a new full-stack wired and wireless network for its new 6-story regional office building. The facility’s bottom two floors will be retail space for a large banking branch. The upper floors will be carpeted corporate office space, with each floor approximately 100,000 sq ft (9290 sq m). All data centers are offsite and outside this project’s scope. The customer is underserved by its existing L2-based network infrastructure and wants to use modern best practices in the new design. The network must be fully resilient and fault-tolerant, with dynamic segmentation at the edge.
The retail space will provide public guest Wi-Fi access. Retail associates will use corporate tablets for customer service, and a mixture of wired and wireless devices will be deployed throughout the retail floors. Corporate users will mainly use wireless connectivity, although several wired clients, printers, and hard VoIP phones will be used.
The customer also plans to renovate the corporate office space to take advantage of 'smart office' technology. These enhancements will enable blue-dot wayfinding, presence analytics, and other location-based services.
The client chose to authenticate wired headless devices using Mac Authentication, with RADIUS attributes returned to the NAD to assign VLAN and port-access parameters to the authentication session on the switch port.
What would be critical to making this a successful deployment?
Choose two.
A junior engineer has been hired to help with a large-scale network infrastructure project. Because the engineer has not previously worked on a project this complex, they want to better understand the role each stakeholder will have.
Match each stakeholder title with the responsibility most likely associated with that role.
Based on this campus design, select the layer most suitable to be designed as a Border Persona when considering an EVPN VXLAN Fabric.
