Your customer wants to move to a distributed data center architecture but has budget constraints this year. Which migration approach should you recommend?
Recommend the customer manage the existing third-party switches with HPE Aruba Networking Central.
Install two switches that support the distributed data center architecture at the data center edge and route all traffic through those switches.
Postpone the migration until the organization has the budget to replace all the ToR switches at one time.
Replace the ToR switches in one rack at a time and gain the benefits of improved security in each updated rack.
The correct answer isDbecause Aruba’s recommended approach for data center modernization isincremental adoption—upgrading ToR (Top-of-Rack) switches rack by rack. This allows organizations with budget constraints to gradually gain the benefits of Aruba’s distributed architecture, includingZero Trust segmentation, automation, and enhanced security, without requiring a full data center refresh at once. Each rack upgraded contributes to improved resiliency and security while staying within budget.
Relevant extracts from official HPE Aruba Networking documentation:
“Aruba CX switches support a modular migration path, enabling customers to deploy rack by rack while extending automation and security benefits with each deployment.”
“Organizations can start small, upgrading specific racks or pods, and scale out over time to achieve a fully distributed architecture.”
“By leveraging incremental upgrades, customers can adopt Zero Trust and distributed services without requiring a disruptive forklift replacement.”
“This approach balances budget constraints with immediate benefits, allowing IT to progressively modernize their data center infrastructure.”
Why the other options are incorrect:
AManaging third-party switches in Aruba Central may provide monitoring, but it does not deliver the benefits of a distributed Aruba data center architecture.
BInstalling only two switches at the edge creates a bottleneck and does not represent a scalable or resilient distributed design.
CPostponing migration provides no immediate security or operational benefits, delaying modernization unnecessarily.

A customer has many small sites that connect over a wide area network (WAN) to the customer’s data center and access the Internet from there. Due to changes in traffic patterns, the CIO now wants to stop sending Internet-bound traffic through the data center, but the Head of IT Security is concerned about potential security risks from that change. What benefit of HPE Aruba Networking solutions should you emphasize?
HPE Aruba Networking solutions optimize network speeds to such a high degree that the company can continue sending all traffic through the data center.
HPE Aruba Networking offers branch-in-the-box solutions with all the services branches require, so branch devices no longer need to send traffic to the Internet.
HPE Aruba Networking offers SD-WAN solutions for branches with built-in next-generation firewall capabilities.
HPE Aruba Networking Fabric Composer automatically establishes a secure fabric across all the customer’s sites.
The correct answer isCbecauseHPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WANprovides secure local Internet breakout at branch sites withintegrated next-generation firewall (NGFW) and security features.This allows Internet-bound traffic to be securely routed directly from the branch instead of being backhauled through the data center, while still ensuring full visibility and threat protection.
Relevant extracts from HPE Aruba Networking documentation:
“Aruba EdgeConnect SD-WAN enables local Internet breakout with integrated NGFW and IDS/IPS capabilities, reducing latency while ensuring strong security.”
“This approach eliminates the inefficiencies of backhauling SaaS and Internet traffic to the data center, without compromising security posture.”

Which business outcome is a high priority for most Chief Information Security Officers (CISO)?
Allowing network admins to use their preferred security monitoring tools.
Ensuring that employees can only access resources from within the corporate campus.
Improving operational continuity by minimizing risks and attack surfaces.
Planning network security so that they can assume no breach will ever occur.
The correct answer isCbecause CISOs are primarily focused onreducing business risk, minimizing the attack surface, and ensuring operational continuity.Instead of assuming that breaches will never occur, modern security strategies such asZero TrustandSASEaim to mitigate risks, contain breaches, and protect critical business operations to maintain availability and resilience.
Relevant extracts from official HPE Aruba Networking documentation:
“CISOs prioritize reducing the attack surface and ensuring operational resilience, recognizing that breaches are inevitable.”
“Aruba Zero Trust Security minimizes risk by continuously authenticating and authorizing all users and devices, ensuring least-privilege access.”
“By combining visibility, control, and automated enforcement, Aruba solutions help security leaders maintain business continuity while reducing exposure.”
“Operational continuity and resilience are the top business outcomes CISOs seek, enabled by proactive risk minimization strategies.”
Why the other options are incorrect:
APreferred tools may be useful, but tool choice is not the main business outcome for CISOs—it’s about risk reduction and continuity.
BRestricting access to only the corporate campus is outdated in today’s hybrid and remote-first environments.
DAssuming no breach will occur is unrealistic. Modern security models (Zero Trust, Assume Breach) accept that threats will happen and focus on resilience and minimization.
