H19-401_V1.0 HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 Questions and Answers

Huawei’s SD-WAN solution comprises specific components. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation highlights:

C: iMaster NCE is the management and control platform.

E: CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) is the edge device for connectivity.

A (NE): Network Element is a generic term, not a specific SD-WAN component.

B (Gateway): Used in some contexts but not a key SD-WAN component.

iMaster NCE-Campus is Huawei’s intelligent network management and control platform for campus networks. According to the HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation:

iMaster NCE-Campus can be configured as an AAA server, performing authentication, authorization, and accounting for network users, either standalone or in conjunction with external servers like RADIUS.

It can also function as a Portal server, providing web-based authentication for NAC scenarios suchas guest access.

AP coverage control is key in WLAN design. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation specifies:

A, C: Antenna angle and transmit power directly adjust coverage area.

In the Huawei public cloud scenario, the platform operator manages the cloud infrastructure. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation outlines:

Platform Operator Responsibilities: Include cloud platform O&M (B), collecting network statistics (C), and MSP management (D) to ensure service delivery and oversight.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) support varies across Huawei’s NetEngine AR series. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation specifies:

D: NetEngine AR651W-8P supports PoE, with 8 PoE-capable ports.

FireHunter is Huawei’s APT detection system, integrated into campus and SD-WAN solutions. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation confirms:

It uses sandboxing with multi-engine virtualized detection to analyze static (code) and dynamic (runtime) software behavior.

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) introduces advanced features to enhance wireless performance, including smart antenna technology. According to the HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation:

Smart antenna technology in Huawei’s Wi-Fi 6 APs (e.g., AirEngine series) uses adaptive beamforming to dynamically adjust signal direction and strength. This improves coverage and signal quality, particularly for uplink transmissions from stations (STAs) to the AP.

The focus is on medium- and long-distance uplink performance, as smart antennas mitigate signal attenuation over distance, ensuring reliable connectivity for devices farther from the AP.

Indoor AP installation modes vary. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation lists:

A, B, C: Threaded rod, ceiling, and wall mounting are standard for Huawei APs.

Site division has trade-offs. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation notes:

Huawei’s CloudCampus leverages iMaster NCE for network management. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation states:

A: Users can plan topology before devices go online, and topology correction is supported to refine plans, making this statement false.

B: Automatic topology discovery occurs post-onboarding, which is true.

C: Network planning post-device onboarding is supported, making it true.

Network Access Control (NAC) involves multiple roles to enforce security policies. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation defines these roles as:

Admission Device: This is the network device (e.g., switch or AP) that enforces access control policies and initiates authentication (e.g., as an 802.1X authenticator). It is a key NAC component.

User Terminal: The endpoint device (e.g., laptop, smartphone) requesting network access. It interacts with the admission device and often runs a supplicant for authentication.

User: While the user is the human entity accessing the network, NAC terminology focuses on technical components (devices and servers) rather than the user as a "role" in the process.

Hybrid Internet access balances local and centralized options. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation explains:

B, C: Local priority and dual configuration are true.

Local Internet access is flexible. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation confirms:

CloudCampus supports dual modes. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation clarifies:

Management channels in Huawei’s SD-WAN solution (via iMaster NCE) handle configuration delivery. The HCSP-Presales-Campus Network Planning and Design V1.0 documentation states:

C: Unified management of CPEs, automatic service delivery, and overlay network control are core functions of management channels.
