to protect the SSID from being changed
to configure wireless client authentication
A customer installs a wireless access point at home in the closet next to the kitchen. The customer mentions that the wireless communication performance seems degraded when the cordless phone or the microwave oven is in use. What is the possible reason for this degradation?
The wireless signal is in the same radio frequency range as the household devices are in.
The access point is close to walls.
The surge of electricity when a microwave oven is in use disrupts the operation of the access point.
The cordless phone joins the WLAN and shares the available bandwidth.
The access point is on the same electrical circuit as the phone base unit and microwave oven are.
What functionality is required on routers to provide remote workers with VoIP and videoconferencing capabilities?
QoS
PPPoE
VPN
IPSec
A wireless router is displaying the IP address of 192.168.0.1. What could this mean?
The wireless router has been configured to use the frequencies on channel 1.
The wireless router still has the factory default IP address.
Dynamic IP address allocation has been configured on the router and is functioning correctly.
The NAT function is not working on the wireless router.
A laptop cannot connect to a wireless access point. Which two troubleshooting steps should be taken first? (Choose two.)
Ensure that the wireless NIC is enabled.
Ensure that the wireless SSID is chosen.
Ensure that the laptop antenna is attached.
Ensure that the NIC is configured for the proper frequency.
Ensure that the correct network media is selected.
In setting up a small office network, the network administrator decides to assign private IP addresses dynamically to workstations and mobile devices. Which feature must be enabled on the company router in order for office devices to access the internet?
NAT
QoS
UPnP
MAC filtering
What is a difference between autonomous APs that operate in a home environment and controller-based APs that operate in a corporate environment?
Controller-based APs can be automatically configured and managed by a WLAN controller.
Autonomous APs do not support PoE.
Controller-based APs are known as lightweight APs and require an initial configuration to operate.
Autonomous APs incorporate the functions of a router, switch, and AP into one device.
Which WLC tab would a network administrator typically use to see a summary view of the most heavily used WLANs including the number of clients using a particular WLAN?
Commands
Controller
Monitor
WLANs
Users on an IEEE 802.11n network are complaining of slow speeds. The network administrator checks the AP and verifies it is operating properly. What can be done to improve the wireless performance in the network?
Change the authentication method on the AP.
Switch to an 802.11g AP.
Set the AP to mixed mode.
Split the wireless traffic between the 802.11n 2.4 GHz band and the 5 GHz band.
