1. Question 1FlexConnect

   Which problem does FlexConnect exist to solve at a branch site?

   • AClient data would otherwise cross the WAN to a controller and come straight backCorrect
   • BClient data would otherwise never reach the controller for policy to be applied
   • CAccess points would otherwise be unable to join a controller across a WAN
   • DAccess points would otherwise require a separate controller at every branch
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   In a centrally switched design every client frame is tunnelled to the controller inside CAPWAP and every reply comes back the same way, so two devices at a branch talking to a server in the same building send each frame across the wide area link twice. FlexConnect local switching removes that round trip by terminating the client VLAN on the access point's own wired port. The access point still joins a central controller for its configuration, radio management and monitoring, so only the data path becomes local while the control plane stays where it was.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BClient data reaches the controller perfectly well over a tunnel.
   • CAccess points join a controller across a wide area link without difficulty.
   • DA separate controller at every branch is the expense this design avoids.
2. Question 2FlexConnect

   Which removes that dependency at a branch?

   • AServe addresses from something at the branch rather than across the linkCorrect
   • BExtend the lease length so clients keep their addresses for longer
   • CSwitch the WLAN centrally so the address and data paths match
   • DGive every client a fixed address configured by hand
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   Moving the address source into the building removes the dependency rather than deferring it, which is what a branch expected to survive an outage actually needs. A longer lease, central switching and hand configured fixed addresses are three measures that defer the problem, worsen it or do not scale.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BA longer lease defers the problem rather than removing the dependency.
   • CA WLAN switched centrally so the paths match adds a dependency.
   • DA fixed address configured by hand for every client does not scale.
3. Question 3QoS on a Wireless Network

   Which describes an optimisation that configures a set of quality settings together?

   • AA single choice applies a coherent set rather than each setting being chosen aloneCorrect
   • BA single choice disables every quality setting the controller was applying
   • CA single choice applies to one WLAN and cannot be applied to others
   • DA single choice replaces the wireless priority scheme with a wired one
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   Applying a set that is known to work together removes a large class of mistakes made by configuring each part in isolation, which is why such optimisations exist at all. Disabling every setting, applying to one WLAN only and replacing the priority scheme are three descriptions that do not hold.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BThe settings are applied rather than disabled by the choice.
   • CThe choice can be applied to more than one WLAN.
   • DThe wireless priority scheme continues to be used.
4. Question 4Multicast

   Which describes which services a policy should permit at all?

   • AThe ones the organisation intends people to use, named explicitlyCorrect
   • BEvery service any device on the network happens to advertise
   • COnly the services that were advertised most recently in time
   • DOnly the services advertised by devices the organisation owns
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   An explicit list is what stops somebody's personal device offering a service to a floor full of colleagues, which is a security consideration as much as a usability one. Every advertised service, the most recent advertisements and ownership based selection are three approaches that are each too broad or unworkable.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BEvery advertised service includes a great deal nobody should be offered.
   • CHow recently a service was advertised is not a sensible criterion.
   • DWhich devices the organisation owns is hard to establish from an advertisement.
5. Question 5Location Services

   Which question does an aggregate count answer well?

   • AHow busy a particular area became at particular times of the dayCorrect
   • BWhich individual spent the longest in a particular area
   • CWhether a particular employee arrived before nine in the morning
   • DWhich individual was nearest to a particular device at a moment
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   An aggregate count reports occupancy over time: how busy an area became, at which hours, and how this week compares with last month. Space planning, cleaning schedules, meeting room provisioning and capacity decisions all rest on that rather than on who was present, which is why the aggregate answer is usually sufficient on its own. Questions about a particular individual are a different kind of question, and choosing to answer them changes what the deployment is and what obligations it carries.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BWhich individual spent the longest is not what a count reports.
   • CWhether a particular employee arrived early is not what a count reports.
   • DWhich individual was nearest a device is not what a count reports.
6. Question 6Advanced Location Services

   Which describes the data the standby holds?

   • AA copy that is kept up to date, with a small lag behind the active memberCorrect
   • BA copy that is made only at the moment a failure occurs
   • CA copy that is identical at every instant with no lag whatever
   • DNo copy at all, because the data is rebuilt after a failover
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   The standby is synchronised continuously rather than at the moment of failure, but synchronising takes time, so there is always a small window of state that has not reached it yet. That lag is what decides how much is lost in a failover, which makes it a figure worth knowing rather than an implementation detail: it tells you which sessions survive the switch and which have to be built again.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BA copy made at the moment of failure would arrive too late.
   • CA copy identical at every instant with no lag is not achievable.
   • DA copy is held rather than the data being rebuilt after a failover.
7. Question 7Security for Wireless Client Connectivity

   Which does that mechanism require between the server and the controller?

   • AA path the server can initiate, rather than only one the controller initiatesCorrect
   • BA path the controller initiates, which is the only direction ever used
   • CNo path at all, because the change is applied by the client itself
   • DA path the client initiates to ask for its own access to be changed
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   Ordinary authentication is always started by the controller, so firewall rules and address translation between the two are usually written for that direction alone. This mechanism reverses it: the server opens a conversation towards the controller whenever it decides a live session's policy should change. That inbound path has to be permitted, and configured with a shared secret at both ends. It is the part most often missed, because nothing else in the deployment needs it.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BThe controller initiating is the ordinary direction rather than this one.
   • CA path is very much required for the server to reach the controller.
   • DThe client does not ask for its own access to be changed.
8. Question 8Security for Wireless Client Connectivity

   Which does revocation require to be effective?

   • ASomething checks whether the certificate has been revoked before admitting itCorrect
   • BNothing checks, because a revoked certificate stops working by itself
   • CThe device checks its own certificate and refuses to present it
   • DThe access point checks the certificate against a local copy
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   Revocation publishes a statement that a certificate is no longer valid. It does nothing to the certificate itself, which remains cryptographically perfect and will be accepted by anything that does not look. So the authentication server has to consult the revocation list or an online responder while it validates the certificate, and that check has to be both enabled and reachable. A deployment that issues revocations and never checks them admits revoked devices exactly as it always did.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BA revoked certificate does not stop working of its own accord.
   • CThe device is not trusted to refuse to present its own certificate.
   • DThe access point does not hold a local copy to check against.
9. Question 9Monitoring

   Which describes an alarm that fires every night at the same time?

   • AIt probably reflects a scheduled activity rather than a faultCorrect
   • BIt probably reflects a fault that recurs at random intervals
   • CIt probably reflects a platform that has stopped collecting data
   • DIt probably reflects a suppression that has just expired
   ✓ Correct answer: A

   Regularity is the signature of something scheduled, and treating such an alarm as a fault wastes the same investigation every night. A fault recurring at random intervals, a platform that stopped collecting and a suppression that just expired are three explanations that do not produce a nightly pattern.

   Why the other options are wrong

   • BA fault at random intervals would not fire at the same time nightly.
   • CA platform that stopped collecting would raise nothing at all.
   • DAn expired suppression would not recur every night.
10. Question 10Monitoring

    Which pattern makes a recurring complaint solvable?

    • AThe same place, the same time of day or the same set of people each occasionCorrect
    • BA different place, time and set of people on every single occasion
    • CNo record of the previous occasions being kept at all
    • DA single occurrence that has never happened again
    ✓ Correct answer: A

    What the occasions have in common, whether that is the place, the time of day or the people involved, is the whole of the clue, and it only becomes visible once more than one has been recorded. That is why keeping a short record of each report is worth more than investigating any single one of them in isolation.

    Why the other options are wrong

    • BA different place, time and set of people every occasion offers no pattern.
    • CNo record of previous occasions leaves nothing to compare against.
    • DA single occurrence that never recurred offers no pattern at all.
