Question Image

The customer has VSX clusters at two locations, interconnected over an MC-LAG interface. You need an SVI to provide a seamless experience for clients connected to the Edge-1 and Edge-2 switches to reach the default route when resources are moved between the switches.

What must be done according to HPE Aruba Networking best practices?

  • A Configure the active gateway and use the same virtual IP and vMAC.
  • B Configure active forwarding and use the same virtual IP and a different vMAC.
  • C Configure the VXLAN interface and bind required SVIs as VNIs.
  • D Configure VRRP and load balance traffic using member properties.
Explanation

VSX Active Gateway provides a redundant, active-active default gateway on an SVI, allowing endpoint traffic to use either VSX peer without a gateway change during movement or failure. The active gateway virtual IP address and virtual MAC address must be configured identically on both VSX switches. Aruba identifies Active Gateway as the modern preferred approach to VRRP for this purpose.
