01. Which is the range of accepted values to define precedence?
a) Larger than ten
b) Smaller than zero
c) Zero or larger
d) Only between zero and ten
02. A Vlink has been configured globally with 100 Mbps cap. There is a running transfer at 75 Mbps. A new transfer starts with a target rate of 50 Mbps. What will be the speed of the new transfer?
a) The new transfer is still slower than the Vlink setting, so it will go at 50 Mbps
b) The new transfer will go at 50 Mbps, reducing the first transfer to 50 Mbps as well
c) The new transfer will go at 25 Mbps until the first one finishes, then it will go at 50 Mbps
d) The transfer rates adjust (based on transfer policy) so that the total does not exceed 100 Mbps
03. Which statement is true about the UDP port chosen for a transfer?
a) It is statically set to 33001
b) It is negotiated between the client and the server
c) It is randomly set in the allowed range
d) It is chosen accordingly to the rules set in the firewall
04. An Aspera HSTS is running on Windows and there is more than one client that starts a transfer. Which statement is true?
a) UDP ports are randomly chosen in the allowed range in the firewall
b) The UDP port used is always the same, but UDP sockets can be reused by multiple processes
c) The first transfer uses the configured port, while others negotiate a port incrementally higher from the first available one
d) The first transfer uses the greatest port in the allowed list and others use a port decremented until the range is exhausted
05. What can be determined from the log snippet below?
2019-11-12 12:14:52.629 ascp[12458] LOG [libssh2] 0.629369 Failure
Event: -18 - Username/PublicKey combination invalid
2019-11-12 12:14:52.845 ascp[12458] LOG [libssh2]
0.845721 Failure Event: -18 - Authentication failed
(username/password)
2019-11-12 12:14:52.865 ascp[12458] ERR [ascp] SSH authentication failed
2019-11-12 12:14:52.865 ascp[12458] ERR failed to authenticate
a) The ascp server is not an Aspera HSTS
b) The ascp client was provided with a wrong bearer token
c) The SSH server is misconfigured and cannot accept ascp connections
d) The ascp client did not provide the right password or the right key
06. How can Aspera Transfer users’ access be restricted to running only Aspera commands on the transfer server?
a) Configure the user with an aspshell
b) Configure the user to require encryption at rest
c) Configure the user to authenticate with an SSH passphrase
d) Configure the user with a secure shell access to the server
07. What is the main difference between loose or restricted mode in aspshell?
a) In loose mode, async is allowed. In restricted mode it is not.
b) In loose mode, ascmd is allowed. In restricted mode, it is not.
c) Restricted mode only allows webapps (Faspex, Shares) to connect and use Aspera HSTS.
d) In loose mode, transfer user can still SSH into Aspera HSTS and run commands at the OS level. In restricted mode, it cannot.
08. What are two reasons a transfer user would require a docroot?
a) When using access keys
b) When connecting to IBM Aspera On Cloud
c) When using server-side encryption-at-rest
d) When connecting to Faspex or Shares
e) When complex file-system access rules are needed
09. Which items are included when asnodeadmin is used to perform a backup of the local Redis DB?
a) Users and access keys only
b) Users, access keys, and SSH keys
c) Access keys and sub access keys only
d) The complete Redis DB can be backed up
10. Which cipher mode is used by the Aspera FASP Security Model?
