Option B
B imo
B. check the official Aruba datasheet or admin guide for CX switch models to confirm 100GbE uplink support if unsure.
Its C. Had something like this in a mock, CX 6300 was listed with high-speed stacking and uplink options so picked it there.
I don’t think it’s C. B is correct since only the Aruba CX 8400 line actually supports native 100GbE uplink modules, not just fast stacking. Others like the 6300 max out at lower uplink speeds. I’m pretty sure about this, unless Aruba changed the lineup recently.
Feels like it's C, CX 6300 can do high-speed stacking so some might confuse that with 100GbE uplinks.
Looks like it's B here, since only the Aruba CX 8400 series actually has real 100GbE uplink modules. The rest do high stacking but don't offer native 100GbE physical ports. Correct me if I'm missing a config.
This was on my last practice set, it's B. Only the CX 8400 series has real 100GbE uplink ports as far as I know. The others top out below that, unless you're talking only stacking bandwidth.
C or B. I thought the CX 6300 supported high-speed uplinks too since the stacking bandwidth is way up there. Not 100% sure if that stacks up against real 100GbE ports, though, so I'm picking C for now unless I'm missing something obvious.
Why not C though? Doesn't 6300 get close in uplink options too?
