What enables plug-and-play provisioning of Aruba access points in a client network?

• A. UCC Service
• B. LLDP-MED
• C. SRTP
• D. CSMA

Answer: (A)

Plug-and-play provisioning for Aruba APs depends on a centralized provisioning service that automatically provides new APs with their configuration and firmware when they boot up. The UCC Service acts as that provisioning backbone, allowing an AP to discover the correct controller or Central configuration and download the necessary settings without manual intervention. This enables zero-touch deployment, so devices can be deployed quickly in a client network and immediately join with the proper SSIDs, security, and policies. The other options don’t handle provisioning: LLDP-MED is used for device discovery and policy/QoS signaling, not for loading configurations; SRTP is an encryption protocol for media streams; CSMA is a basic Ethernet access method.
