Tips for taking HP exams Rather than emphasize simple memorization, HP exams attempt to assess whether you have the knowledge and skills that an IT professional requires on the job. Therefore, some exam items present a scenario, which outlines a particular network environment or problem. Some exam items might also include one or more exhibits. Exhibits can be for example: Network topologies Abstracts of switch configuration file output Commands and command output This exam includes the following question (item) types: Multiple choice (single response) Select one radio button to indicate a correct answer. If the response is correct, you will receive one point. Multiple choice (multiple responses) Select more than checkbox to indicate a correct answers as noted in the question. If all the responses are correct, you will receive one point. There is no partial credit. Matching Select an answer from the drop-down list to match each option. You cannot use the same answer twice. If the all the responses are correct, you will receive one point. There is no partial credit. Pull-down list Select an answer from the drop-down list to match each option. You can use the same answer more than once. If all the responses are correct, you will receive one point. There is no partial credit. This ExpertOne exam presents all the questions in a single block. The candidate agreement is presented first, followed by the exam introduction and instructions. Once you click the Next Question button on the instructions page, the questions will be presented one at a time. You can move from question to question, skip questions, and change your answers. However, once you submit your answers, you cannot return to review those questions or change your answers. Here are some additional tips: Use the Next Question / Previous Question buttons to move forward and backward between questions. The Submit button will appear when you reach the last question. Use the Assessment Navigator to jump between questions in a block and to review flagged questions. To do this, click the Assessment Navigator button and select the question you want to navigate to. Flagged questions are indicated above the item number in the upper left corner. The Assessment Navigator also uses different shading to indicate answered versus unanswered items. Use the Assessment Navigator to launch the calculator tool by clicking the Calculator button at the bottom. Figure 1: Assessment Navigator When you begin the exam the total number of questions will display. To estimate how much time you should allow per question, divide the total time by the number of questions. For this exam, you will have an average of just less than two minutes per question. Some questions are more complex and will require more time. You might want to answer the questions you know first. If a question is taking too much time, flag it using the Assessment Navigator, and then return to it later. 12

Before you do answer a question, take the time to read the question and all of the options carefully. If the question indicates that it features an exhibit, study the exhibit and reread the question. Make sure to select the answer that correctly responds to the question that is asked not simply an answer that includes some correct information. You must select every correct answer. You do not receive partial credit for selecting any less than all of the correct answers. Register To register for this exam, visit the PearsonVUE website at: http://www.pearsonvue.com/hp. You will need an HP Learner ID and a PearsonVUE ID. Visit http://www.hp.com/certification to obtain access to The Learning Center. 13

Comware switches that use distributed trunking, or ProVision switches that use meshed stacking d. Comware switches that use IRF or ProVision switches, which use distributed trunking Explanation: The correct answer is d. Choice a is incorrect because meshed stacking does not support distributed LACP. Choices b and c are incorrect because Comware switches do not support distributed trunking. 2. Which modules provide connectivity for blade servers installed in the HP BladeSystem c-class enclosure to external switches? (Select two.) a. Virtual Connect module b. HP 6120G module c. 5830AF module d. 8200zl module e. MSR900 module Explanation: The correct answers are a and b. Choice c is incorrect because the 5830AF is a Comware switch. Choice d is incorrect because the 8200zl is a ProVision switch. Choice e is incorrect because the MSR900 is a Comware router. 17

3. Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator needs to configure DHCP on an HP Comware switch. The network administrator configures the following information: [SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 1 [SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp select relay [SwitchA-Vlan-interface1] dhcp relay server-select 1 After setting up DHCP relay, the network administrator has the DHCP client try to acquire addressing information, but the process fails. What should the network administrator do to solve this problem? a. Execute the routing command on SwitchA. b. Execute the dhcp enable command on SwitchA. c. Configure DHCP relay on SwitchB. d. Enable DHCP Snooping on SwitchA. Explanation: The correct answer is b. Choice a is incorrect because routing is enabled on Comware switches, by default. Choice c is incorrect because DHCP relay is not necessary on SwitchB since both ports are in VLAN 3. Choice d is incorrect because DHCP Snooping is used to detect rogue DHCP servers. 4. A network administrator needs to restrict access to the console port of an HP Comware switch. The initial access should prompt for a username and password. Which configuration should the network administrator implement? a. user-interface con0 authentication-mode local-user local-user administrator password cipher 12345678 b. user-interface aux0 authentication-mode scheme username administrator password cipher 12345678 c. user-interface aux0 authentication-mode scheme local-user administrator password cipher 12345678 d. user-interface con0 authentication-mode scheme username administrator password cipher 12345678 18

Explanation: The correct answer is c. Choice a is incorrect because Comware switches do not have a con0 port and there is no local-user authentication mode. Choice b is incorrect because there is no username command. Choice d is incorrect because Comware switches do not have a con0 port and there is no username command. 5. Refer to the command output. Based on this output, which statement is true? a. This router is the BDR. b. This router is the DR. c. This router is a DROTHER. d. This router is not participating in OSPF in VLAN 220. Explanation: The correct answer is a. Answer b is incorrect because 10.0.0.21 is the DR. Answer c is incorrect because there is a DR and a DROTHER, which means that this router must be the BDR. Answer d is incorrect because this router has formed two adjacencies with other OSPF routers in VLAN 220. 6. Which additional OSPF states does an OSPF router go through when forming an adjacency with a DR or BDR that it does not go through with a DROTHER? (Select three.) a. down state b. loading state c. exchange state d. init state e. two-way state f. full state Explanation: The correct answers are b, c, and f. Choices a, d, and e are incorrect because an OSPF router will go through these three states with all OSPF routers: DROTHERs, DRs, and BDRs.
