This is the general recommendation from the AirWave Server Sizing Guide1, which provides guidelines for selecting and configuring hardware based on the number of devices, clients, and features. The guide also lists the conditions that impact hardware sizing, such as polling frequency, RAPIDS, VisualRF, and Clarity.

Deployed as a purpose-built hardware or virtual machine image, each AirWave server supports up to 4,000 network devices (access points, switches, and controllers).https://www.arubanetworks.com/assets/ds/DS_AW.pdf

The Aruba MC 7010 and 7024 are both designed for small to mid-sized campuses and branches, but they have some differences in their features and specifications. One of the main differences is the number and type of ports they offer. The MC 7010 has 16 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, while the MC 7024 has 8 10/100/1000BASE-T ports and 8 1000BASE-X SFP ports1. This means that the MC 7024 can support more APs that require fiber connections, such as the AP-387 or the AP-5352. The MC 7024 also supports 10G ports, which can provide higher bandwidth and performance for the network backbone3.

Therefore, if the customer needs to connect 20 APs directly to the MC, and some of them require fiber or 10G connections, the MC 7024 is a better choice than the MC 7010. The other options (A, B, and C) are not relevant for choosing between the MC 7010 and 7024, as both models can support up to 64 APs and 4096 users or devices, and both models can provide PoE+ on 12 ports1.

The Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) is a technology that allows two or more Aruba switches to operate as a single logical device, providing high availability, simplified management, and increased performance. VSF is supported on Aruba 5400R zl2 switches, which are modular switches that can accommodate different types of line cards and power supplies1.

The VSF fabric requires two types of connections between the member switches: VSF links and VSF ports. VSF links are the physical connections that carry the VSF control and data traffic, while VSF ports are the logical interfaces that bundle the VSF links into a single logical link. VSF links can be either 10 GbE or 40 GbE, and VSF ports can be either 10 GbE or 40 GbE1.

To create a VSF fabric with two 5406R zl2 switches, the architect needs to ensure that the switches have the compatible modules, transceivers, and cables for the VSF links and ports. According to the ArubaOS-Switch Management and Configuration Guide1, the following requirements apply for the VSF fabric:

• The switches must have the same chassis model, the same number and type of modules, and the same firmware version.
• The switches must have at least one v3 module in slot A or B. The v3 modules are the ones with the letter “M” in the part number, such as J9990A, J9991A, and J9992A. The v2 modules are the ones with the letter “A” in the part number, such as J9534A, J9535A, and J9536A.
• The switches must have the same type of transceivers and cables for the VSF links. The supported transceivers are the Aruba 10G SFP+ LC SR, the Aruba 10G SFP+ LC LR, the Aruba 40G QSFP+ LC SR4, and the Aruba 40G QSFP+ MPO SR4. The supported cables are the Aruba 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 1m DAC Cable, the Aruba 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 3m DAC Cable, the Aruba 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 1m DAC Cable, and the Aruba 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 3m DAC Cable.

Based on the exhibit, the architect has planned to use the Aruba 40G QSFP+ to QSFP+ 1m DAC Cable (JH234A) for the VSF links, which is a supported option. However, the architect has also selected the Aruba 24p 10GBASE-T v2 zl Module (J9536A) and the Aruba 20p 10GbE SFP+ v2 zl Module (J9535A) for the switches, which are not compatible with the VSF fabric. The architect should change these v2 modules to v3 modules, such as the Aruba 24p 10GBASE-T v3 zl2 Module (J9996A) and the Aruba 20p 10GbE SFP+ v3 zl2 Module (J9990A), to meet the VSF requirements.

The other options are not issues with the plan. Adding two QSPF+ MP0 SR4 transceivers (A) is not necessary, as the DAC cable already provides the 40 GbE connection for the VSF links. Adding stacking modules and cables © is not required, as the VSF fabric does not use the traditional stacking technology. Changing the power supply type (D) is not relevant, as the VSF fabric does not impose any restrictions on the power supply type.

the new 802.11ac deployment should have a capacity-based design for the best performance, but the existing deployment sounds like a coverage-based design. This is because a capacity-based design takes into account the number and type of clients, the applications they use, and the bandwidth they require. A coverage-based design only considers the signal strength and the absence of coverage holes. A site survey is desirable to determine the optimal locations for the new APs because it can help the architect to assess the current and future capacity needs, identify the sources of interference and noise, and optimize the channel and power settings for the new APs.

Option A is incorrect because an 802.11ac deployment does not necessarily work better with side-mounted APs. The mounting location of the APs depends on the antenna type, the ceiling height, and the RF environment.

Option C is incorrect because 802.11ac AP radios are not more sensitive to 2.4 GHz interference than 802.11n APs. In fact, 802.11ac APs operate in the 5 GHz band, which is less crowded and prone to interference than the 2.4 GHz band.

Option D is incorrect because 802.11ac APs cannot support a higher density of clients by being deployed farther apart. On the contrary, 802.11ac APs need to be deployed closer together to provide the higher data rates and throughput that 802.11ac clients expect.
