IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances Firmware V5.0 Solution Implementation Sample Questions:

1. A solution implementer needs to integrate a DataPower appliance with an IMS COBOL application. The multi-protocol gateway is created with an HTTP Front Side Handler and an IMS Connect backside URL of the form dpims://. The EBCDIC HeaderConversion is configured as "on" in the IMS Connect object. What benefit(s) can the solution implementer achieve by using this Header Conversion option?

A) Converts IMS headers to EBCDIC encoding
B) Converts IMS headers to ASCII encoding
C) Converts both IMS headers and payload to EBCDIC encoding
D) Converts bothIMS headers and payload to ASCII encoding

2. A solution implementer has created a Deployment Policy to scan through configuration objects when they are imported and to remove any references to appliance specific settings such as the Ethernet addresses. Which of the following Deployment Policy settings would provide this functionality? (choose two)

A) A Filtered Configuration with a list of the objects that are to be included.
B) A Modified Configuration with rules specifying Delete Configuration for the object references to be removed on import.
C) A Rejected Configuration with a list ofthe objects that must be rejected during import.
D) A Filtered Configuration with a list of the objects that are to be excluded.
E) An Accepted Configuration with a list of the correct values for the properties forany named objects that will be updated during import.

3. A solution implementer is debugging a web service proxy which communicates with a backend service http://server1:9092/myserv. The irregular performance to the backend service cannot be explained so a packet capture is run to dig deeper into the issue. The results need to be stored in a file called packet-capture. Also, the solution implementer wants to capture data only related to the specific backend service host and across all interfaces. What CLI syntax should the solution implementer use and how can the packet capture be analyzed?

A) packet-capture temporary:///packet-capture -1 10000 9000 and analyze using any text editor or word processor
B) packet-capture temporary:///packet-capture -1 10000 9000 "host server1" and analyze using any 'pcap' compliant application, such as 'tcpdump' or 'Wireshark'.
C) packet-capture-advanced all temporary:///packet-capture -1 10000 9000 "host server1" and analyze the packet capture using the Troubleshooting section in the DataPower WebGUI.
D) packet-capture-advanced all temporary:///packet-capture -1 10000 9000 "host server1" and analyze using any 'pcap' compliant application, such as 'tcpdump' or 'Wireshark'.

4. A solution implementer is configuring a single multi-protocol gateway to dynamically route messages to back end servers. For internal consumers the request needs to be routed to an MQ based back end and for external consumersthe request needs to be routed to an HTTP based back end service. How can the solution implementer satisfy this requirement?

A) Select a route action with an XPath routing map.
B) Set the variables var://service/URI for the server and var://service/protocol-method for the protocol type.
C) Use the xset-target extension function.
D) Set the variable var://service/routing-url.

5. An organization has isolated environments for development, functional, integration and performance testing. Each environment includes at least one DataPower appliance, client, and several instances of backend systems. A solution implementer has made changes to a DataPower service in the development environment that needs to be promoted to other testenvironments for further testing. During migration, environment specific values must be changed in order for the configuration to integrate with the correct backend systems in the target environment. What options does the solution implementer have to automate this migration? (choose three)

A) Use the checkpoint function of the appliance to save copies of configuration for specific target environments.
B) Use the Deployment Policy object to change environment specific values at the time of import at the target appliance.
C) Use the Deployment Policy object to changeenvironment specific values at the time of export at the source appliance.
D) Use the WebGUI to change environment specific values and then export the configuration.
E) Take a secure backup of the appliance and secure restore the configuration on the target appliance.
F) Use an external script to search and replace environment values. Then use the script to push the configuration via CLI or XML Management Interface.
