HPE6-A73 Exam - Question 65


An administrator is managing a network comprised of AOS-CX switches deployed at the aggregation layer. The switches are paired in a VSX stack and run the

OSPF routing protocol. The administrator is concerned about how long it takes for OSPF to converge when one of the VSX switches has to reboot.

What should the administrator to do speed up the OSPF convergence of the switch that is rebooting?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

To speed up OSPF convergence when one of the VSX switches reboots, the administrator should implement graceful restart on the VSX switches and their neighboring OSPF switches. Graceful restart facilitates the continuation of forwarding traffic while re-establishing OSPF adjacencies, thus minimizing the OSPF downtime and speeding up convergence during the reboot process.
