Q: 2
Your customer has four (4) Aruba 7200 Series Gateways and two (2) 7000 Series Gateways. The customer wants to form a cluster with these Gateways. What design consideration would prevent you from using all of those Gateways?

D. not A. Cluster limit for mixed 7200 and 7000 series is four nodes so can't use all six even if they’re on the same version. Anyone else get tripped up by that in the docs?
D imo, the issue's that mixed clusters of 7200 and 7000 series gateways in AOS 10.x cap out at four nodes. Having six like in the question just won't work, regardless of version. Pretty sure that's what the official docs and blueprint mention-anyone recall if they've seen this directly in practice or labs?
Guessing D. Mixed 7200 and 7000 clusters hit a hard four-node max on AOS 10.x, so all six can't go together.
D vs A. Had something like this in a mock and D was right, there's a 4-node cap when mixing 7200 and 7000 series gateways in one AOS 10.x cluster, so can't use all six.
Its A here. I think the version mismatch is usually the big headache with clusters, not so much the node count. Maybe I'm missing something about the hardware mix but versions always seem to catch people out first. Disagree?
Nah, I think A. Version mismatch is usually a real trap with cluster configs.
D is right. Mixed cluster of 7200 and 7000 series in AOS 10.x maxes out at four nodes, so that's the real design block for using all six gateways. Saw similar limits called out in the docs, pretty sure on this.
Probably D, mixed 7200 and 7000 gateway clusters in AOS 10.x only go up to 4 nodes.
Looks like it's A here. If the gateways aren't running the same software version, clustering won't work in AOS 10.x.
