You are validating association capabilities from clients to an 802.1X/EAP secure SSID. The RADIUS server’s IP address is 10.100.50.25 and the default RADIUS authentication port is used. When testing them, none of the clients are able to associate to the SSID. Troubleshooting the WLAN infrastructure, you found out that the server is up and the RADIUS service is up as well, but the authenticator is not able to communicate properly with the server.
What’s your next troubleshooting step?
- A . Verify that the shared secret between the authenticator and the RADIUS server is correct
- B . Reboot the clients
- C . Reboot the server
- D . Restart the RADIUS service
Before performing a pre-deployment passive RF survey of a new deployment using survey mapping software, which of the following must be performed?
- A . Determining AP transmit power
- B . Scaling the map
- C . Selecting antennas
- D . Checking client DTPC settings
Why does a frame transmitted at 1 Mbps have a greater usable range than the same frame transmitted at 54 Mbps?
- A . Free space path loss causes greater signal dispersion for higher rate transmissions.
- B . Receiver sensitivity requirements are lower for frames transmitted with less complex modulation and coding.
- C . To improve reliability, 802.11 STAs increase transmit power as the signaling rate decreases.
- D . Lower data rate RF transmissions travel at higher speeds and are less likely to experience collisions.
In an RSN requiring low-latency reassociations and no fast secure roaming protocols, what security solutions are ideal for protecting VoWiFi communication? (Choose all that apply.)
- A . WPA2-Personal
- B . WPA-Personal
- C . WPA2-Enterprise
- D . WEP
- E . 802.1X/EAP
You are on site, planning a network at a freight shipping company on a busy harbor. Since the preliminary WLAN design specifies support for the 5 GHz spectrum, you would like to test for radar pulses to determine if DFS channels should be supported at this facility. As a part of your spectral survey with a laptop-based analyzer, you include DFS testing to identify the presence of radar. This is done by manually observing Real-time FFT, Duty Cycle, and Active Devices charts of the spectrum analyzer software.
What potential drawback is present with this DFS test method?
- A . Many WLAN products that support DFS channels report several false positives. Ideally, the actual WLAN equipment used in the deployment should be used to test for DFS.
- B . Some sources of 5 GHz radar, such as military ships, are mobile in nature. A longer, automated test setup should be used to identify the presence or absence of radar.
- C . Manual identification of radar pulses using spectrum analysis charts can be very difficult due to radar’s low amplitude at the Wi-Fi receiver.
- D . Modern spectrum analyzer adapters do not provide the necessary bandwidth resolution required to detect and measure radar signatures.
What advantages are provided by per-user PSKs when compared with ESS-wide PSKs? (Choose all that apply.)
- A . Per-user PSKs allow easier user-based access control with WPA/WPA2-Personal security.
- B . Per-user PSKs are easier to manage if a PSK is compromised or an employee leaves a company.
- C . Per-user PSKs are standardized and certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance.
- D . Per-user PSKs are more secure than ESS-wide PSKs because they support mutual authentication.
You are site surveying a network for VoWiFi. You have positioned an AP for a manual survey and are moving away from the AP with a phone in Survey Mode in your hand and you are reading the RSSI value of the signal received from the AP. You have previously determined that the noise floor was approximately -94 dBm on this floor of the building. The phones documentation does not specify a recommended RSSI or SNR value for best performance.
Based on the information provided and the type of device (VoWiFi phone) you are deploying, what minimum RSSI should you plan for in all areas you are monitoring and where VoWiFi service is desired?
- A . – 75 dBm
- B . – 72 dBm
- C . – 67 dBm
- D . – 62 dBm
A controller-based WLAN infrastructure has its controller on a different subnet than its APs.
What device must be used to enable any communication between the Controller and the APs?
- A . NTP server
- B . Router
- C . PoE Layer 2 switch
- D . Wireless bridge
When installing a cloud-based AP, what is the most common process used?
- A . Configure the AP as an autonomous AP and then, when it connects to the cloud, it will be reconfigured.
- B . Configure a profile for the AP in the cloud and then connect it for automatic configuration.
- C . Connect the AP to the network and configure it from the cloud assigning a configuration or policy set to the AP.
- D . Configure the AP with a local controller and then, when it connects to the cloud, it will be reconfigured.
What statements are true regarding jitter and latency? (Choose all that apply.)
- A . Jitter is a measurement of the variance of the number of frames received from an application for a specific time interval.
- B . Jitter is a measurement of latency variability from one frame to another.
- C . Latency is a measurement of the time delay experienced in the delivery of a frame.
- D . Latency is a measurement of the time required to transmit two subsequent frames.
- E . Jitter is a measurement of average latency based on a sample of >100 frames.
