A company has an IRF-based, 2-tier FlexFabric architecture in its data center. The company is now increasing the amount of server virtualization and also adding more redundant connections across the network infrastructure backbone. Which benefit does software-defined networking (SDN) provide for this FlexFabric solution?
ASDN applications can extend the virtual switches inside hosts into the control plane of multiple physical infrastructure devices.
BSDN can help core routing switches handle more routing table entries without sacrificing performance.
CSDN extends the SNMP MIBs to include MIBs for virtual switches.
DSDN applications can help to provision network connectivity for virtual machines and to forward traffic across complex meshes of links

CIt removes the need for queuing.
DIt enables QoS verification for BYOD.

AFlush
BPush
CBarrier
DForce
Which environmental component is used to handle authentication requests to the HP VAN SDN Controller?
AZookeeper
BCassandra
CNeutron
DKeystone
What are two challenges when planning to implement a BYOD environment? (Select two.)
Adevice state unknown
Bdevice software inspection
Cdevice not under central control
Ddevice CA enrollment
Edevice inventory control
Which HP IMC SDN Manager functionality provides a logical overview of the OpenFlow network?
ASDN Manager reports
BSDN Manager dashboard
CSDN Manager flow entry management
DSDN Manager OpenFlow topology
A network environment consists of multiple switches. Some of the switches are configured for OpenFlow 1.0, and some of the switches are configured for
OpenFlow 1.3. These switches are configured to communicate with an HP VAN SDN Controller. What is the result of the negotiation?
AAll OpenFlow switches successfully negotiate to use OpenFlow 1.3 with the controller, and OpenFlow 1.0 switches ignore OpenFlow 1.3 extensions.
BOpenFlow 1.3 switches successfully negotiate to use OpenFlow 1.3 with the controller, and the OpenFlow 1.0 switches fail to connect
CAll switches negotiate to use OpenFlow 1.0 as the highest common version.
DOpenFlow 1.3 switches negotiate to use OpenFlow 1.3, and OpenFlow 1.0 switches negotiate to use OpenFlow 1.0.
A switch connects to the HP VAN SDN Controller, which has the HP Network Protector SDN Application installed. These are the switch details:
Switch: 3800-24G-2XG -
Firmware: KA15.14.003 -
OpenFlow negotiated: 1.3 -
Which channel will be used for communication with the HP Network Protector application?
AOpenFlow Channel
BNormal Forwarding
CService Insertion Tunnel
DGRE Tunnel
An HP Provision switch loses its OpenFlow connection to the HP VAN SDN Controller. How is traffic processed by default if no controller teaming is configured?
APackets and messages destined to the controller are dropped. Flows continue to expire according to their time-outs. This is because the default setting on HP Provision switches is fail-standalone.
BPackets and messages of new flows behave as a legacy switch or router would. Existing flows of this OpenFlow instance are removed. This is because the default setting on HP Provision switches is fail-standalone.
CPackets and messages of new flows behave as a legacy switch or router would. Existing flows of this OpenFlow instance are removed. This is because the default setting on HP Provision switches is fail-secure.
DPackets and messages destined to the controller are dropped. Flows continue to expire according to their time-outs. This is because the default setting on HP Provision switches is fail-secure.
