1. Question 171 · 871 in bank

   A technician is consolidating a topology with multiple SSIDs into one unique SSID deployment. Which of the following features will be possible after this new configuration?

   • ASeamless roaming
   • BBasic service set
   • CWPA
   • DMU-MIMO

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   After consolidating a topology with multiple SSIDs into one unique SSID deployment, seamless roaming will be possible. Seamless roaming is a feature that allows a device to move from one access point to another within the same network without losing its connection. This can be useful in a wireless network with multiple SSIDs, as it allows the device to roam freely between access points without having to disconnect and reconnect to the network. Other features such as basic service set (BSS), WPA, and MU-MIMO may still be possible after the new configuration, but they are not directly related to the consolidation of multiple SSIDs into a single SSID.

   Which of the following is used to provide disaster recovery capabilities to spin up all critical devices using internet resources?

   • ACloud site
   • BHot site
   • CCold site
   • DWarm site

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   A cloud site is the correct answer and provides disaster recovery capabilities to spin up all critical devices using internet resources. A cloud site is a type of disaster recovery solution that allows an organization to access and use its critical systems and data in the cloud, rather than on physical servers. In the event of a disaster, an organization can use its cloud site to quickly spin up all its critical devices and continue operations using internet resources. Answer B, a hot site, is not the correct answer in this scenario. A hot site is a type of disaster recovery site that is fully equipped and ready for immediate use. It typically includes all the necessary hardware, software, and infrastructure to support an organization's operations in the event of a disaster. However, a hot site is not necessarily designed to use internet resources to spin up critical devices, as is the case with a cloud site.

   Which of the following attack vectors represents a large number of devices sending access requests to a website, making it unavailable to respond?

   • AVirus
   • BBotnet
   • CARP spoofing
   • DDDoS

   Show answer

   Answer: D

   Explanation

   A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is an attack vector in which a large number of devices send access requests to a website, making it unavailable to respond. In a DDoS attack, the devices used to send the access requests are often part of a botnet, which is a network of compromised devices that are controlled by a single entity. The goal of a DDoS attack is to overwhelm the website with traffic, making it difficult or impossible for legitimate users to access the site. Other attack vectors such as viruses, ARP spoofing, or individual devices sending access requests are not likely to cause the same level of disruption as a DDoS attack.

4. Question 174 · 871 in bank

   Several end users viewing a training video report seeing pixelated images while watching. A network administrator reviews the core switch and is unable to find an immediate cause. Which of the following BEST explains what is occurring?

   • AJitter
   • BBandwidth
   • CLatency
   • DGiants

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   The issue of pixelated images in a training video is likely related to a problem with bandwidth, not with jitter, latency, or giants. Bandwidth refers to the amount of data that can be transmitted over a network connection in a given amount of time. When multiple users are trying to access the same resource, such as a video file, the available bandwidth may become congested. This can cause the video stream to be interrupted or delayed, resulting in pixelated images or other video artifacts. Jitter is a variation in the delay of packet delivery over a network, which can cause audio or video to be distorted or choppy. This is unlikely to be the cause of the issue in this scenario, as pixelation is typically related to bandwidth rather than jitter.

5. Question 175 · 871 in bank

   An international company is transferring its IT assets, including a number of WAPs, from the United States to an office in Europe for deployment. Which of the following considerations should the company research before implementing the wireless hardware?

   • AWPA2 cipher
   • BRegulatory impacts
   • CCDMA configuration
   • D802.11 standards

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   Before implementing the wireless hardware in Europe, the company should research the regulatory impacts that may affect the deployment of the WAPs. Different countries have different laws and regulations governing the use of wireless devices, such as WAPs. For example, some countries have specific rules about the maximum allowed transmit power of WAPs, while others have rules about the frequencies that WAPs can operate on. By researching the regulatory impacts before deploying the WAPs, the company can ensure that it is compliant with local laws and regulations and avoid any potential issues. Other considerations such as the WPA2 cipher, CDMA configuration, and 802.11 standards may not be as relevant for this particular scenario.

6. Question 176 · 871 in bank

   A company is moving to a new building designed with a guest waiting area that has existing network ports. Which of the following practices would BEST secure the network?

   • AEnsure all guests sign an NDA.
   • BDisable unneeded switchports in the area.
   • CLower the radio strength to reduce Wi-Fi coverage in the waiting area.
   • DEnable MAC filtering to block unknown hardware addresses.

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   B is the correct answer. Disabling unneeded switchports will disable unused switchports ENTIRELY, making unauthorized switchport connections impossible in the first place. A is incorrect because it has nothing to do with the question in hand. You are not going to share corporate data with guests in a waiting area, and furthermore, NDAs do not harden the network. C is incorrect because it is not the best option. Sure, you can limit the range of the WAP antenna's signal to stop outsiders from connecting to the wireless network, but that would cause attenuation issues for guests unless you know what you are doing. D is incorrect because that is security through obscurity. Anyone with security knowledge can easily spoof MAC addresses nowadays, so whitelisting MAC addresses is not a great idea in a guest waiting room.

7. Question 177 · 871 in bank

   A network technician receives a support ticket about an employee who has misplaced a company-owned cell phone that contains private company information. Which of the following actions should the network technician take to prevent data loss?

   • ADisable the user account.
   • BLock the phone.
   • CTurn off the service.
   • DExecute remote wipe.

   Show answer

   Answer: D

   Explanation

   Quite surprising to see this question here, this is more like a CompTIA 220-1102 question. Anyways, the correct answer is D. Executing a remote wipe is the only way to ensure that company data is not released into the public or the wrong hands. Other answers will not release the data in the hard drive of the phone. Any attacker can take out the hard drive of the phone and extract the data.

8. Question 178 · 871 in bank

   A network technician is having issues connecting an IoT sensor to the internet. The WLAN settings were entered via a custom command line, and a proper IP address assignment was received on the wireless interface. However, when trying to connect to the internet, only HTTP redirections are being received when data is requested. Which of the following will point to the root cause of the issue?

   • AVerifying if an encryption protocol mismatch exists.
   • BVerifying if a captive portal is active for the WLAN.
   • CVerifying the minimum RSSI for operation in the device's documentation.
   • DVerifying EIRP power settings on the access point.

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   The root cause of the issue could be a captive portal being active for the WLAN. When a device connects to a WLAN that has a captive portal, the device is typically redirected to a login page in order to gain access to the internet. This is done by the device receiving HTTP redirections when it tries to access the internet. Therefore, verifying if a captive portal is active for the WLAN would be the most likely solution to this issue.

   Which of the following is the LARGEST MTU for a standard Ethernet frame?

   • A1452
   • B1492
   • C1500
   • D2304

   Show answer

   Answer: C

   Explanation

   I wasnt sure if I should pick 1500 at first, but after thinking it through, there is nothing suggesting that I should not include the Frame header, which when accounted for, brings the total MTU to 1500 bytes

10. Question 180 · 871 in bank

    Which of the following topologies requires the MOST connections when designing a network?

    • AMesh
    • BStar
    • CBus
    • DRing

    Show answer

    Answer: A

    Explanation

    A mesh topology requires the most connections when designing a network. In a mesh topology, every device on the network is connected to every other device, creating a network in which there are many paths between devices. This means that in a mesh network with N devices, there will be N(N-1)/2 connections.
