HP HPE7-A01 Practice Test 62

Question 610

A floor switch sees unexpected MAC addresses on an authenticated staff port. Which observation would best verify that the intended behavior is working?

  1. Review EAP failure events and the presented client/server certificates
  2. Compare accepted legitimate ARP and rejected spoofed frames in violation logs
  3. Check contract expiry, assigned role and denied internal destinations
  4. Inspect port authentication sessions and learned MACs after adding a test bridge

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Session evidence reveals unauthorized additional devices. One authenticated user should not automatically grant unrestricted service to all downstream hosts.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Chain or EKU errors can be distinguished from transport faults. By contrast, session evidence reveals unauthorized additional devices.

B:

The control should distinguish authentic bindings from forged claims. In this situation, session evidence reveals unauthorized additional devices.

C:

Authorization should disappear when the contract ends. It would not resolve the documented symptom; session evidence reveals unauthorized additional devices.

Question 611

A floor switch sees unexpected MAC addresses on an authenticated staff port. Which belief about the configuration should the team reject?

  1. Assume a single successful 802.1X exchange validates any downstream MAC learned later
  2. Place all departments into one open VLAN because they share a printer service
  3. Trust all edge ports so no DHCP offers are ever blocked
  4. Use MAC filtering as the sole defense against a capable attacker

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A shared physical port may carry multiple hosts. One authenticated user should not automatically grant unrestricted service to all downstream hosts.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Shared resources do not require unrestricted lateral access. It would not resolve the documented symptom; a shared physical port may carry multiple hosts.

C:

That configuration lets a rogue server assign unsafe gateways. By contrast, a shared physical port may carry multiple hosts.

D:

MAC addresses can be observed and impersonated. The relevant technical distinction is that a shared physical port may carry multiple hosts.

Question 612

A floor switch sees unexpected MAC addresses on an authenticated staff port. What should be included in the rollout plan to limit a foreseeable failure?

  1. Review role permissions with the information security owner before broad rollout
  2. Document key rotation, supported client transition and immediate incident response
  3. Require explicit deny checks whenever guest roles or VLAN mappings change
  4. Define phone-and-PC multi-auth exceptions explicitly

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Legitimate shared-port designs should not become open forwarding paths. Session evidence reveals unauthorized additional devices.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A broad authenticated role can still expose sensitive systems. Here, however, legitimate shared-port designs should not become open forwarding paths.

B:

A hurried change must not leave critical devices offline. The relevant technical distinction is that legitimate shared-port designs should not become open forwarding paths.

C:

A template error can expose protected systems at scale. By contrast, legitimate shared-port designs should not become open forwarding paths.

Question 613

A corporate WLAN security team needs to support EAP-TLS without accepting a fraudulent RADIUS server. What should the network engineer do to address this requirement?

  1. Use a narrow quarantine role or security policy for the affected authenticated device
  2. Require supplicant validation of the authentic server certificate and trust anchors
  3. Review authentication server fallback behavior and fail-closed or restricted-role settings
  4. Apply segmentation or role-based enforcement appropriate to the student trust level

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Client-side trust validation reduces credential capture by imitation servers. Rejection of an impostor demonstrates effective trust checking.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Targeted containment avoids unnecessarily denying healthy users. The relevant technical distinction is that client-side trust validation reduces credential capture by imitation servers.

C:

Authentication failure must not silently grant privileged access. In this situation, client-side trust validation reduces credential capture by imitation servers.

D:

Edge access control should restrict more than initial login. Here, however, client-side trust validation reduces credential capture by imitation servers.

Question 614

A corporate WLAN security team needs to support EAP-TLS without accepting a fraudulent RADIUS server. What should the team inspect to confirm the result?

  1. Inspect a test connection with valid and forged server certificates
  2. Compare accepted legitimate ARP and rejected spoofed frames in violation logs
  3. Verify deprecated insecure services are disabled and administrative sessions use secure protocols
  4. Probe management ports from approved NOC and guest sources

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Rejection of an impostor demonstrates effective trust checking. Client-side trust validation reduces credential capture by imitation servers.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The control should distinguish authentic bindings from forged claims. In this situation, rejection of an impostor demonstrates effective trust checking.

C:

A documented policy is not proof the old listener is closed. Here, however, rejection of an impostor demonstrates effective trust checking.

D:

Access lists must allow operators while denying guests. It would not resolve the documented symptom; rejection of an impostor demonstrates effective trust checking.

Question 615

A corporate WLAN security team needs to support EAP-TLS without accepting a fraudulent RADIUS server. Which misconception is most likely to obstruct a correct fix?

  1. Turn off server-certificate checks to eliminate authentication prompts
  2. Trust all edge ports so no DHCP offers are ever blocked
  3. Disable all security logs to reduce switch CPU while leaving attack traffic unrestricted
  4. Share a permanent administrator credential to avoid provisioning an individual contractor identity

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The client could then trust a malicious authenticator. Client-side trust validation reduces credential capture by imitation servers.

Incorrect Answers

B:

That configuration lets a rogue server assign unsafe gateways. It would not resolve the documented symptom; the client could then trust a malicious authenticator.

C:

Less monitoring does not stop packet floods. In this situation, the client could then trust a malicious authenticator.

D:

Shared privileged access defeats accountability and revocation. By contrast, the client could then trust a malicious authenticator.

Question 616

A corporate WLAN security team needs to support EAP-TLS without accepting a fraudulent RADIUS server. What precaution is most important before the change is expanded?

  1. Apply temporary role expiry and require a contractor sponsor
  2. Distribute the approved CA profile through device management
  3. Require explicit deny checks whenever guest roles or VLAN mappings change
  4. Document key rotation, supported client transition and immediate incident response

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A consistent trusted root reduces unsafe manual user prompts. Rejection of an impostor demonstrates effective trust checking.

Incorrect Answers

A:

External access must be revoked when the assignment ends. The relevant technical distinction is that a consistent trusted root reduces unsafe manual user prompts.

C:

A template error can expose protected systems at scale. It would not resolve the documented symptom; a consistent trusted root reduces unsafe manual user prompts.

D:

A hurried change must not leave critical devices offline. By contrast, a consistent trusted root reduces unsafe manual user prompts.

Question 617

A campus switch receives DHCP responses from a user-controlled device posing as the network DHCP server. Which configuration decision most directly resolves the situation?

  1. Move administration to a restricted management segment and enforce access control
  2. Enable trusted-port DHCP snooping and monitor unauthorized offers
  3. Use supported port rate limits, storm control or appropriate control-plane safeguards
  4. Deploy supported dynamic ARP inspection with a valid binding source

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The access edge should block unapproved address services. Functionality and protection must both pass.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Management protocols should not be exposed to untrusted clients. By contrast, the access edge should block unapproved address services.

C:

Rate-based protection can prevent one endpoint from exhausting shared resources. Here, however, the access edge should block unapproved address services.

D:

Forged ARP frames can redirect local traffic without changing IP routes. The relevant technical distinction is that the access edge should block unapproved address services.

Question 618

A campus switch receives DHCP responses from a user-controlled device posing as the network DHCP server. Which check most directly demonstrates the desired network behavior?

  1. Test that old credentials fail and authorized devices receive the correct role
  2. Inject a controlled rogue offer and verify it is rejected while legitimate leases succeed
  3. Test denied payroll access and permitted guest internet sessions after authentication
  4. Check contract expiry, assigned role and denied internal destinations

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Functionality and protection must both pass. The access edge should block unapproved address services.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Revocation must be effective on the live WLAN. In this situation, functionality and protection must both pass.

C:

Negative and positive flow checks verify actual role enforcement. The relevant technical distinction is that functionality and protection must both pass.

D:

Authorization should disappear when the contract ends. Here, however, functionality and protection must both pass.

Question 619

A campus switch receives DHCP responses from a user-controlled device posing as the network DHCP server. Which assumption would be most misleading when investigating this situation?

  1. Assume a single successful 802.1X exchange validates any downstream MAC learned later
  2. Use MAC filtering as the sole defense against a capable attacker
  3. Trust all edge ports so no DHCP offers are ever blocked
  4. Turn off server-certificate checks to eliminate authentication prompts

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

That configuration lets a rogue server assign unsafe gateways. The access edge should block unapproved address services.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A shared physical port may carry multiple hosts. In this situation, that configuration lets a rogue server assign unsafe gateways.

B:

MAC addresses can be observed and impersonated. Here, however, that configuration lets a rogue server assign unsafe gateways.

D:

The client could then trust a malicious authenticator. It would not resolve the documented symptom; that configuration lets a rogue server assign unsafe gateways.

Question 620

A campus switch receives DHCP responses from a user-controlled device posing as the network DHCP server. Which safeguard best reduces the deployment risk in this case?

  1. Keep the authorized DHCP relay/server paths documented and monitored
  2. Require explicit deny checks whenever guest roles or VLAN mappings change
  3. Document key rotation, supported client transition and immediate incident response
  4. Maintain an approved AP inventory and a safe containment procedure

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Incorrect trust mapping can cause a general addressing outage. Functionality and protection must both pass.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A template error can expose protected systems at scale. In this situation, incorrect trust mapping can cause a general addressing outage.

C:

A hurried change must not leave critical devices offline. It would not resolve the documented symptom; incorrect trust mapping can cause a general addressing outage.

D:

Incorrect rogue classification can disrupt legitimate neighboring networks. By contrast, incorrect trust mapping can cause a general addressing outage.
