Avaya Aura Web Gateway and WebRTC · WebRTC Troubleshooting
You are verifying the health of an Avaya Aura Web Gateway (AAWG) cluster. You log into the Command Line Interface (CLI) of one of the nodes. Which command would you use to verify the status of the internal Cassandra database replication and ensure all nodes are communicating correctly?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
The
nodetool statuscommand is the standard utility for checking the state of a Cassandra cluster, which is the underlying database used by AAWG for data replication. It shows the Up/Down status and the load of each node in the ring. - Question 2Intermediate
Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise (ASBCE) · ASBCE Configuration
Case Study:
A global enterprise is deploying Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise (ASBCE) to handle SIP trunking for their US headquarters. The topology requires the ASBCE to sit in a DMZ, with a firewall between the ASBCE and the public internet, and another firewall between the ASBCE and the internal network (Communication Manager/Session Manager).
The security team mandates that the internal IP addresses of the Session Manager must never be exposed in SIP headers sent to the Service Provider.
Which ASBCE configuration object is responsible for replacing internal topology information (IP addresses and headers) with the ASBCE's external interface information in outgoing SIP messages?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
A Topology Hiding Profile is specifically designed to scrub internal IP addresses and header information from outgoing SIP messages, replacing them with the ASBCE's own interface IP or a specified domain. This satisfies the security requirement to hide the internal network topology.

Avaya Aura Web Gateway and WebRTC · Web Gateway and WebRTC Configuration
True or False: The Avaya Aura Web Gateway (AAWG) can be co-resident on the same virtual machine as the Avaya Session Manager.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
False. Avaya Aura Web Gateway (AAWG) is a resource-intensive application that requires its own dedicated virtual machine (OVA). It cannot be co-resident with Session Manager or Communication Manager on the same OS instance.

Avaya Presence Services with Avaya Breeze Configuration and Troubleshooting · Avaya Presence Services Configuration
In an Avaya Breeze cluster configuration, what is the primary function of the 'Cluster IP Address' (also known as the Virtual IP)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
The Cluster IP provides a single Virtual IP address for the Breeze cluster. This allows incoming HTTP/HTTPS traffic (for Snap-ins like Presence or WebRTC) to be directed to the cluster as a whole, providing basic load balancing and high availability without necessarily needing an external hardware load balancer for basic setups.
- Question 5Intermediate
Additional Communication Applications · Internet Friendly Gateway
A customer wants to deploy the Internet Friendly Gateway (IFG) to allow external mobile users to access basic call features without a VPN. Which Avaya Aura component is required to host the IFG application?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
The Internet Friendly Gateway (IFG) functionality is typically delivered as a feature set or configuration within the Avaya Session Border Controller for Enterprise (ASBCE), often in conjunction with specific settings to allow non-VPN access for specific endpoints.
- Question 6Intermediate
Application Enablement Services (AES) · AES Troubleshooting
You are troubleshooting a TSAPI link failure on the Application Enablement Services (AES) server. You suspect a network issue between the AES and the Communication Manager. Which AES maintenance web interface page provides the most direct view of the status of the physical connection to the switch?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
The 'Switch Conn Summary' page under Status and Control allows administrators to view the real-time status (Talking, Down, Initializing) of the H.323 gatekeeper link between the AES and the Communication Manager procr interface.
- Question 7Advanced
Avaya Presence Services with Avaya Breeze Configuration and Troubleshooting · Troubleshooting Avaya Breeze and Presence
In an Avaya Breeze deployment, what is the 'ce' command used for when accessed via the Command Line Interface (CLI)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
The
cecommand stands for Cluster Engineering. It is a powerful CLI tool on the Avaya Breeze platform used to view the detailed status of the cluster, check node states, and execute maintenance tasks like putting a node into maintenance mode. - Question 8Intermediate
Contact Center Applications · AACC Agent Desktop
When configuring Avaya Aura Contact Center (AACC) Agent Desktop, which protocol is primarily used for the desktop application to communicate CTI commands to the Avaya Aura platform?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
AACC Agent Desktop typically utilizes TR87 (CSTA over SIP) via Session Manager or TSAPI via AES to perform call control functions (answer, hold, transfer) on the agent's behalf.
- Question 9Beginner
Additional Communication Applications · Call Park and Page
A system administrator is configuring 'Call Park' on Avaya Aura Communication Manager. After creating the Call Park extension, what additional step is critical to allow users to easily retrieve parked calls from any phone?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
To retrieve parked calls, users typically need Console Permissions enabled in their Class of Service (COS), or the Feature Access Code (FAC) for Answer Back/Unpark must be configured and accessible to their COS. Without the proper permissions, the retrieval attempt will fail.
- Question 10Intermediate
Application Enablement Services (AES) · AES Configuration
What is the primary role of the Application Enablement Services (AES) Security Database (SDB)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
The SDB (Security Database) in AES is the authentication and authorization repository. It stores CTI usernames and passwords and defines the specific devices (extensions, VDNs) that each user is permitted to control or monitor via TSAPI/DMCC.
