From ACSP learning book VSX : "Best practices : - Use a direct L3 connection for the keepalive connection - Leave the timer at their default values - ISL LAG : use at least 2x40G or faster links - Define the VSX system-MAC and do not let it default to the built-in system-mac" Correct answer is B & D

Page 194 Study Guide: Keep ISL timers (dead- interval, hello- interval, hold- time, peer- detect- interval) at default value [Aruba Networks] Page 193 Study Guide: Keepalive Link The best practice for the Keepalive connection is to use a direct L3 circuit, which can be a low speed port (1G transceiver is enough, 1GBASE- T works as well) between both VSX nodes.

B & D is correct, B: p193 of SG (default timer) D: p190 of SG (direct-connected L3 Lag)

B & D are correct. The question talks about best-practice. 10G on ISL is not best-practice. Aruba recommends 40 or 100 GB, so answer E is wrong

ISL ports can be 1G https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/AOS-CX/10.09/HTML/vsx/Content/Chp_Start/int-swi-lin-isl-10.htm All ISL ports must have the same speed. The speed can be 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G or 100G, with 40G and 100G being the preferred speeds.

Answer is D and E. Reason B cannot be it because it bluntly says timers but doens't specify which timer. If it says "ISL Timers should be left at their default values." then that ould be true. For instance, VSX linkup-delay-timer is st to 600 so that nullifies option B. https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=a00094242en_us

B & D are correct Whilst you can use 10GbE SFPs for an ISL it is not recommended by Aruba thus not a best-practice.

DE The best practice for ISL bandwidth is at least 2x40G (QSFP+) or 2x 50G(SFP56) or 2x100G (QSFP28). It is technically possible to use2x10Gor 2x25G; The best practice for Keepalive connection is to use a direct L3 circuit p16 and p29 VSX COnfiguration Best praticse document

B & D: The best practice for inter-switch-link timers(dead-interval, hello-interval, hold-time, peer-detect-interval) is to keep the default timers (i.e.no specific configuration) -> p19 Whilst you can use 10GbE SFPs for an ISL it is not recommended by Aruba thus not a best-practice.
