What are two primary concerns regarding layer two loops in a redundant topology? (Choose two.)
A Network Technician is configuring an access layer switch (ALS) to connect to a core switch.
The connection uses two physical links that need to be bundled into a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) for increased bandwidth and redundancy. The LAG will function as a VLAN trunk to carry both Staff (VLAN 100) and Guest (VLAN 200) traffic. The technician must also enable RSTP for loop prevention.
Initial State:
* The switch is in its factory default state, connected via the console.
* The physical links are on ports 1/1/47 and 1/1/48.
Required Configuration:
* Create VLAN 100 and VLAN 200.
* Enable Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP).
* Create LAG interface `lag 1`.
* Configure `lag 1` to use LACP (active mode).
* Add ports 1/1/47 and 1/1/48 to `lag 1`.
* Configure `lag 1` as a VLAN trunk, allowing VLANs 100 and 200.
* Enable the physical ports and the LAG interface.
Which configuration set correctly implements all the specified Layer 2 requirements?

A Network Operator is evaluating the different ways to interact with an HPE Aruba Networking CX switch. The operator needs to understand which tools are best suited for different tasks. Which of the following statements correctly matches the management tool to its primary use case? (Select all that apply.)
A Junior Network Engineer is designing a small office network and has been assigned the IP address block 192.168.100.0/24. They need to create at least 5 separate subnets for different departments, with each subnet supporting at least 25 hosts. Which subnet mask would successfully meet these requirements?
