To establish a Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) fabric with the fewest steps using the plug-and-play method, the administrator needs to configure a VSF link on the commander and enable VSF on the standby member. This approach utilizes the auto-join/plug-and-play functionality, which allows the second switch to automatically join the VSF once connected to the configured VSF port on the commander. This method minimizes the number of configuration steps required by leveraging the plug-and-play capability.
Eventhough none of the answers is 100% correct but A is closest. This is what the official guide says> Auto-join/plug-and-play Using auto-join/plug-and-play allows you to configure one switch with VSF and when connecting a second switch which is factory default will join and form a VSF automatically (assume V3 module is inserted to slot B on the chassis). Configure Member 1 – configure one switch with VSF and reboot HP-VSF-Switch(config)# vsf member 1 link 1 b1 All configuration on this port has been removed and port is placed in VSF mode. HP-VSF-Switch(config)# vsf enable domain 2 To enable VSF, the REST interface will be disabled. This will save the current configuration and reboot the switch. Continue (y/n)? y Connnect Member 2 – connect a factory default switch to the VSF port configured on Member 1.After a few brief moments, the VSF will detect the new device, reboot the new switch and ---
Using auto-join/plug-and-play allows you to configure one switch with VSF and when connecting a second switch which is factory default will join and form a VSF automatically. So Answer B is ok.
