Which IEEE wireless standard is known as WiGig and operates using a tri-band solution in the 2.4, 5, and 60 GHz ranges?
802.11g
802.11n
802.11ac
802.11ad
Which two roles are typically performed by a wireless router that is used in a home or small business? (Choose two.)
repeater
access point
WLAN controller
Ethernet switch
RADIUS authentication server
Which feature of 802.11n wireless access points allows them to transmit data at faster speeds than previous versions of 802.11 Wi-Fi standards did?
SPS
WPS
MIMO
MITM
A supervisor needs wireless access in the construction office during the construction of a new building. The construction office is in the new building and directly across the road from headquarters. What could be used to satisfy this requirement of needing a narrow area of coverage?
multiple MIMO antennas
omnidirectional
rubber duck
Yagi
Which type of wireless topology is created when two or more Basic Service Sets are interconnected by Ethernet?
IBISS
BSS
WiFi Direct
ESS
ad hoc WLAN
Which statement defines the control frame operation between two stations?
A station sends an RTS frame as the first step in a three-way handshake that is required before sending data frames.
A station responds to an RTS frame with an ACK frame, thus providing permission for the requesting station to send a data frame.
If the sending station does not receive an ACK frame within a predetermined period of time, the sending station will drop the connection.
After receiving a data frame, the receiving station will send an ACK frame to the sending station if no errors are found.
A student uses a laptop to upload an assignment to a file server. Which wireless frame type did the laptop send to locate and associate with the campus access point?
beacon frame
control frame
data frame
management frame
During which stage of establishing connectivity between a WLAN client and an AP does the client learn the MAC address of the AP?
discovery
probing
association
encryption
authentication
For which discovery mode will an AP generate the most traffic on a WLAN?
passive mode
open mode
mixed mode
active mode
What is the purpose of the Distributed Coordination Function in an IEEE 802.11 WLAN environment?
It allows a client to detect whether or not a channel is clear prior to transmission.
It is used in a full-duplex environment to detect collisions.
It is used to send data over a half-duplex connection.
It allows the client to change transmission channels.
What is an advantage of SSID cloaking?
It provides free Internet access in public locations where knowing the SSID is of no concern.
Clients will have to manually identify the SSID to connect to the network.
SSIDs are very difficult to discover because APs do not broadcast them.
It is the best way to secure a wireless network.
If three 802.11b access points need to be deployed in close proximity, which three frequency channels should be used? (Choose three.)
1
3
5
6
8
11
Which three Wi-Fi standards operate in the 2.4GHz range of frequencies? (Choose three.)
802.11a
802.11b
An employee connects wirelessly to the company network using a cell phone. The employee then configures the cell phone to act as a wireless access point that will allow new employees to connect to the company network. Which type of security threat best describes this situation?
cracking
denial of service
rogue access point
spoofing
Which security mode is the least secure choice when a home wireless router is configured?
WPA
WPA2
WEP
WPA2-Personal
Which parameter is commonly used to identify a wireless network name when a home wireless AP is being configured?
ad hoc
BESS
SSID
A company has recently implemented an 802.11n wireless network. Some users are complaining that the wireless network is too slow. Which solution is the best method to enhance the performance of the wireless network?
Replace the wireless NICs on the computers that are experiencing slow connections.
Split the traffic between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands.
Disable DHCP on the access point and assign static addresses to the wireless clients.
Upgrade the firmware on the wireless access point.
Fill in the blank. Do not use abbreviations. Ad hoc wireless topologies sometimes can use a feature called to enable a smartphone to create a personal hotspot.
A network administrator discovers a rogue AP in the network. The rogue AP is capturing traffic and then forwarding it on to the legitimate AP. This type of attack is known as a attack.
Fill in the blank. Use the acronym.
Which encryption protocol is used by the WPA2 shared key authentication technique?
Place the following actions in the order in which they occur in a shared key authentication process. (Not all options are used.)
Match the type of attack to its description. (Not all options are used.)
Open the PT Activity. Perform the tasks in the activity instructions and then answer the question.
What is the SSID of the connected network and which message is displayed in the browser window?
SSID: Home-Net Message:Congratulations! You were able to connect it!
SSID: Home-Network Message: Good job!
SSID: Home-Network Message: Well done
SSID: Home-Net Message:Congratulations! You did it!
