HPE6-A45 Exam - Question 8


Refer to the exhibit.

The routing switches shown in the exhibit run OSPF on the links between each other. The commander in the Switch-1 VSF fabric goes down. Traffic is disrupted for several seconds.

What should a network administrator do to support a faster failover in a similar situation?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

To support a faster failover when the commander in the Switch-1 VSF fabric goes down, the network administrator should configure graceful restart, or nonstop OSPF, on Switch-1 and Switch-2 with a proper timer. Graceful restart (or nonstop OSPF) allows the router to continue forwarding packets while the OSPF process reroutes, which minimizes disruption during a failover event. This ensures continuous routing and faster recovery in case of a failure, which addresses the problem described.

I think correct answer is C. When you use VSF, OSPF graceful restart ensures nonstop routing as the standby member takes over as commander.

Concur, this isn't an OSPF Adjacency issue, but rather a VSF Commander>>Standby transition issue. C is correct.

We have two separated VSF on the picture. So, it isn't about VSF Commander and Standby. I think A is the right answer.
