What is the role of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) in Wi-Fi communication?
- A . Encrypts Wi-Fi frames for security
- B . Enables clients to roam between APs quickly
- C . Allows multiple subcarriers to transmit data simultaneously
- D . Converts analog signals to digital
C
Explanation:
OFDM divides a high-speed signal into multiple slower subcarriers, each carrying part of the data in parallel. This improves performance and resistance to interference in Wi-Fi communication.
A compliance officer wants to investigate which employees were near a quarantined area in the past 48 hours.
Which Mist feature provides the best solution?
- A . Proximity Tracing
- B . Guest Portal Analytics
- C . RSSI-Based Heatmap
- D . Indoor Navigation SDK
A
Explanation:
**Proximity tracing** logs which users or devices were within a defined distance (e.g., 2 meters) over time ― ideal for compliance or health tracking scenarios.
A retail chain uses Mist to manage Wi-Fi across 300 stores. They need a way to ensure that changes to SSID security settings are applied across all locations **without logging into each site manually**.
What feature supports this requirement?
- A . AP Group CLI
- B . Local DHCP Relay
- C . Config Template with Auto-Sync
- D . Scheduled Radio Restart
C
Explanation:
Mist’s Config Templates allow global changes (e.g., SSID security policy updates) to be made once and automatically pushed to all assigned sites and APs using Auto-Sync.
A global retail company has multiple IT administrators. One administrator should only manage the Paris store’s Wi-Fi configuration, while another should manage global policies.
How should roles be assigned in Mist?
- A . Use only the template system to separate access
- B . Assign both as global Admins to allow shared flexibility
- C . Assign one as a Site-level Admin for Paris and the other as Org-level Admin
- D . Make one a Site-level Admin for Paris and the other a Read-only user
C
Explanation:
Site-level Admins can manage specific site configurations (e.g., Paris), while Org-level Admins control policies, templates, and users across all sites.
A healthcare clinic requires that all IoT medical devices (e.g., monitors, scanners) connect securely without user interaction and be placed in VLAN 30. These devices don’t support 802.1X.
What is the most appropriate way to allow access using Mist?
- A . Create a hidden SSID with WPA3-Enterprise
- B . Use OWE encryption and dynamic VLAN mapping
- C . Use sponsor-based guest portal login for all devices
- D . Assign a WxLAN “IoT” role based on MAC address and map to VLAN 30
D
Explanation:
Mist allows MAC-based WxLAN role assignment, ideal for IoT devices that cannot perform 802.1X. The role can assign VLAN 30 automatically for isolation and policy enforcement.

A client is consistently trying to connect to the Mist WLAN but fails during authentication.
Which built-in Mist troubleshooting tool can provide a step-by-step view of where the failure is occurring?
- A . Historical SLE Summary
- B . RF Spectrum Analyzer
- C . Audit Log Viewer
- D . Client Journey Timeline
D
Explanation:
The Client Journey Timeline visually shows each step of the connection (association, auth, DHCP, DNS) and flags where a failure occurs.
After applying a new SSID configuration template to 150 branch sites, several sites begin reporting “no internet” issues. You open Marvis and ask, “What’s wrong with branch clients?” The AI responds: “High DHCP timeout rate at 26 locations after template push.” What likely caused this?
- A . DHCP pool exhaustion at core
- B . Wi-Fi password expiration
- C . Marvis Minis interference
- D . Incorrect VLAN/DHCP mapping in the new template
D
Explanation:
A **bad VLAN to DHCP assignment** is a common issue during config push. Marvis pinpoints this by correlating DHCP failures with the recent change.
Which of the following statements best describes the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)?
- A . It indicates the device’s retry rate
- B . It compares useful signal to background noise
- C . It measures how many devices are on a channel
- D . It defines how wide the signal channel is
B
Explanation:
SNR is the ratio of the desired signal to background noise. A higher SNR indicates a clearer and more reliable connection. For Wi-Fi, SNR should be at least 25 dB for good performance.
Which of the following best describes the deployment benefit of Mist vBLE compared to traditional Bluetooth beacons?
- A . Mist vBLE does not require physical beacon installation
- B . vBLE requires manual battery replacement
- C . Traditional beacons can be configured from the cloud
- D . Mist vBLE only supports proximity-based triggers
A
Explanation:
Mist vBLE is embedded into Mist APs, eliminating the need to manually deploy and manage battery-powered BLE beacons.
