Refer to the exhibit.

You have verified that AOS-CX Switch-1 has constructed an IP-to-MAC binding table in VLANs 10-19.
Now you need to enable ARP inspection for the endpoint connected to Switch-1. What must you do first to prevent traffic disruption?

• A. Configure Switch-1 uplinks as trusted ARP inspection ports.
• B. Configure DHCP snooping on VLANs 10-19 on Switch-2.
• C. Configure ARP inspection on VLANs 10-19 on Switch-2.
• D. Create a static IP-to-MAC binding on Switch-1 for the DHCP server.

Answer: A

Explanation:
Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI):
* ARP inspection verifies ARP packets against a trusted IP-to-MAC binding table to prevent ARP spoofing attacks.
* DHCP snooping is required to construct the IP-to-MAC binding table dynamically.
* To avoid traffic disruption, uplink ports that connect to trusted switches, DHCP servers, or routers must be explicitly configured as trusted ports for ARP inspection.
Steps to Prevent Traffic Disruption:
* Trust the Uplinks: ARP inspection must treat uplink ports as trusted to allow ARP traffic from legitimate DHCP servers and upstream switches.
* Enable DHCP Snooping: DHCP snooping must be enabled on Switch-2 to ensure consistent IP-to- MAC bindings upstream.
Why the Answer is Correct:
* Option A: Incorrect. ARP inspection on Switch-2 is important but not required first to prevent disruption on Switch-1.
* Option B: Incorrect. DHCP snooping must be enabled upstream eventually, but this alone will not stop immediate traffic disruption on Switch-1.
* Option C: Correct. Switch-1 uplinks must be trusted ARP inspection ports first to allow legitimate upstream traffic and prevent ARP disruption.
* Option D: Incorrect. Static bindings are not required if DHCP snooping is enabled, and they are manual, limiting scalability.
Conclusion:
To avoid traffic disruption, configure Switch-1 uplinks as trusted ARP inspection ports to ensure valid ARP traffic can pass upstream and downstream.
