Answer: D

Explanation:

HPE Aruba Networking Central can identify which switch port a rogue AP is connected to by using the switch’s MAC address table. The MAC address table contains the associations between MAC addresses and the switch ports to which devices (including APs) are connected. When Aruba Central detects a rogue AP, it can look up the MAC address of the rogue AP in the switch’s MAC address table to find the specific switch port it is connected to. This enables network administrators to quickly locate and address the rogue AP issue.
