A dual-band 802.11ac AP must be powered by PoE. As a class 4 device, what power level should be received at the AP?
To ease user complexity, your company has implemented a single SSID for all employees. However, the network administrator needs a way to control the network resources that can be accessed by each employee based in their department.
What is always required to establish a high quality 2.4 GHz RF link at a distance of 3 miles (5 kilometers)?
The requirements for a WLAN you are installing state that it must support unidirectional delays of less than 150 ms and the signal strength at all receivers can be no lower than -67 dBm. What application is likely used that demands these requirements?
You are troubleshooting an issue reported by several wireless users. The problem is contained to one cell (several users connected to the same AP). You manage the WLAN and no other network devices. After analysis it appears to be a switch problem. What action should be taken?
Your consulting firm has recently been hired to complete a site survey for a company. Your engineers use predictive design software for the task, but the company insists on a pre-deployment site visit.
What task should be performed as part of the pre-deployment visit to prepare for a predictive design?
In which plane of the three networking planes is an access point configured by a WLAN controlled?
A WLAN is implemented using wireless controllers. The APs must locate the controllers when powered on and connected to the network. Which one of the following methods is commonly used to locate the controllers by the APs?
You administer a WLAN that offers a guest SSID of GUESTNWORK. Users connect to the GUESTNWORK SSID, but report that they cannot browse the Internet. The devices simply report no Internet connection. What common problem causes this scenario?
In WLAN security, what authentication method always creates Layer 2 dynamic encryption keys?
A non-802.11 device is suspected of causing interference on the WLAN. You are not certain of the location or type of device. What is the best solution for locating this non-802.11 device?
When replacing the antenna of a WLAN device with a similar antenna type that has a higher passive gain, what antenna characteristic will decrease?
What common feature of MDM solutions can be used to protect enterprise data on mobile devices?
In a mesh BSS (MBSS), according to the 802.11-2016 standard, what device connect the mesh to an Ethernet network?
You have been tasked with creating a wireless link between two buildings on a single campus. The link must support at least 150 Mbps data rates. What kind of WLAN technology role should you deploy?
The BSA of an AP covers the area used by the sales and marketing department. Thirty-five stations operate in this space. The user indicate that they need more throughput and all stations are 5 GHz capable 802.11ac clients. The current AP configuration uses 20 MHz channels in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. What is the least expensive solution available for increasing throughput for these users without implementing configuration options that are not recommended?
What statement is true concerning the use of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation method in IEEE 802.11 WLANs?
Your manager asked you to locate a solution that allows for centralized monitoring of WLAN performance over time. He wants a single pane of glass for administration and monitoring of the solution. What do you recommend?
A standard PoE injector is use to power an access point requiring 802.3at. CAT6 cabling is in use. What is the maximum distance supported between the access point and the Ethernet switch with the use of a midspan power injector?
A client STA must choose the best AP for connectivity. As part of the evaluation, it must verify compatible data rates. What can the client STA use to verify that an AP supports the same data rates that it supports?
When using a spectrum to look for non Wi-Fi interference sources, you notice significant interference across the entire 2.4 GHz band (not on a few select frequencies) within the desktop area of a users workspace, but the interference disappears quickly after just 2 meters. What is the most likely cause of this interference?
You are implementing a VHT-capable AP. Which one of the following channels is available in the 802.11-2016 standard that was not available before the ratification of 802.11 ac?
What 802.11 PHY uses available space in very low frequency ranges that is not in use at the time by broadcast video signals?
Three access points are used within a facility. One access point is on channel 11 and the other two are on channel 1. The two access points using channel 1 are on either side of the access point using channel 11 and sufficiently apart so that they do not interfere each other when they transmit frames. Assuming no other Aps are in the vicinity, is CCI still a possibility in this network and why?
What Linux shell command can be used to view the hardware and PHY capabilities of a wireless adapter in detail including channel widths, output power settings, channels supported, and more?
You recently purchased four laptops containing dual-band 802.11ac adapters. The laptops can connect to your 2.4 GHz network, but they cannot connect to the 5 GHz network. The laptops do not show the 5 GHz SSIDs, which are different that the 2.4 GHz SSIDs. Existing devices can connect to the 5 GHz SSIDs with no difficulty. What is the likely problem?
