Question 230

A Cisco switch is isolated during recovery and its IP management interface is misconfigured. The engineer has approved physical access to its dedicated console port. Which management method remains appropriate?

  1. HTTPS to a disconnected switch web service.
  2. A direct console connection that does not depend on the switch’s IP routing.
  3. A DNS TXT record pointing to the console PIN.
  4. SSH to the unusable management IP, assuming no addressing is required.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The console port provides out-of-band local access to the device command interface when network management services are unavailable. An authorized technician can inspect or repair IP addressing through a terminal connection. Unlike SSH or HTTPS, a physically attached console session does not need a working network path to the device.

Incorrect Answers

A:

HTTPS still requires the switch to have a reachable IP endpoint. Physical console recovery is independent of the broken management network.

C:

DNS records do not provide direct command access to a physical console port. This would not repair the management interface.

D:

SSH is an IP-based remote protocol and requires network reachability. With the management address broken, it may not be available until repaired through a local path.

Question 231

An administrator is configuring encrypted CLI management over an untrusted routed network and must replace Telnet plaintext credentials. Which service should be used?

  1. SSH access with appropriate authentication and restricted management sources.
  2. CDP advertisements to the administrator’s workstation.
  3. Telnet on TCP 23 with the same password.
  4. HTTP without TLS for the management web console.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

SSH encrypts its management session and user authentication exchange, unlike Telnet which sends its traffic without comparable native encryption. Configure a supported SSH server, authorized identities and VTY transport limits. Access lists or AAA can further restrict who is permitted to connect.

Incorrect Answers

B:

CDP exposes neighbor metadata on a local link and does not create an authenticated encrypted command session over the routed network.

C:

Telnet sends management credentials and content in plaintext, contrary to the encrypted remote-access requirement. Changing passwords alone does not encrypt the protocol.

D:

Plain HTTP also lacks transport encryption. It does not provide a secure CLI session or protect credentials on the path.

Question 232

An administrator creates a WLAN profile with WPA2 settings but forgets to associate it with the policy tag used by the target APs. The WLAN never appears on those APs. What should be reviewed?

  1. The WLAN-to-policy association and the policy/site tags assigned to those APs.
  2. The router’s NAT overload translation entry count.
  3. The switch OSPF router ID.
  4. The client’s DNS suffix search list.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

On supported Cisco WLC configurations, WLAN and policy profiles are associated through tags that select which APs provide the service. A valid WLAN profile not referenced by the AP’s assigned policy may never be served. Verify tag assignments before changing RF channels or credentials.

Incorrect Answers

B:

NAT capacity affects routed address translation but does not select which WLAN profiles APs broadcast. The problem is a missing controller policy association.

C:

OSPF router identity does not attach WLAN profiles to APs. Network reachability could be healthy while tags still omit the WLAN.

D:

DNS resolution begins after WLAN association; it cannot cause an AP to broadcast a profile absent from its policy tag.

Question 233

A WLC has two WLANs with different intended user roles, but both are mistakenly mapped to the same production VLAN. What is the direct configuration check?

  1. Increase the switch MAC table size without checking VLAN assignments.
  2. Change the AP 2.4-GHz channel on one WLAN.
  3. Only compare the two SSID display names.
  4. Inspect each WLAN policy’s client VLAN assignment and correct it according to the approved segmentation plan.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Wireless controller WLAN policies map authenticated clients to specific traffic segments or interfaces depending on the switching architecture. A mistaken common VLAN can bridge guest and employee populations into one Layer 2/IP domain. Correct the policy mapping and verify the trunk or FlexConnect transport path.

Incorrect Answers

A:

MAC table capacity cannot correct an intentional or accidental common VLAN mapping. Segmentation must be configured in the controller policy.

B:

Radio frequency selection does not determine the wired VLAN for associated client traffic. Two WLANs can share an AP radio while using separate client VLANs.

C:

Different names do not imply different VLAN IDs. The observed separation failure is caused by the actual policy mapping, not SSID labels.

Question 234

In a Cisco WLC GUI, an engineer creates an employee WLAN. Users must see `CorpStaff` in their Wi-Fi network list. Which configuration object or field controls that advertised name?

  1. The DHCP lease-time value in the client scope.
  2. The WLC management IP address field.
  3. The spanning-tree bridge priority on the switch.
  4. The WLAN profile SSID `CorpStaff`, with its WLAN enabled on the required APs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The SSID is the network identifier that APs advertise to compatible clients under an enabled WLAN profile. A profile name and its broadcast SSID can differ by platform, so configure the actual advertised SSID field. Client authentication and VLAN mapping still require separate correct settings.

Incorrect Answers

A:

DHCP governs address lifetimes after clients obtain network access and is unrelated to the SSID shown during WLAN discovery.

B:

The controller management address helps devices or administrators reach the WLC but is not the visible wireless network name broadcast by APs.

C:

STP priority influences root bridge selection, not the text advertised in 802.11 WLAN discovery beacons. It does not set the SSID.

Question 235

A Cisco WLC has a WLAN for guest Internet access but must map guest clients to VLAN 130 instead of the employee VLAN 10. Which GUI mapping is relevant?

  1. Rename the guest SSID to contain the number 130.
  2. Select an 802.11 channel number equal to the VLAN ID.
  3. Set the AP management VLAN to 130 on every AP.
  4. Map the guest WLAN’s policy profile/client traffic to the authorized VLAN 130.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

WLC WLAN policy associations determine where user traffic is forwarded or assigned to a wired client VLAN under the chosen architecture. Mapping guests to VLAN 130 keeps their Layer 2/IP segment separate from employee VLAN 10. Verify controller uplink transport or FlexConnect local switching as applicable.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An SSID label is not a wired VLAN mapping. Merely including a number in the WLAN name cannot change Ethernet tagging or policy.

B:

Radio channels and 802.1Q VLAN IDs are unrelated namespaces. Channel 130 does not define the guest Ethernet segment.

C:

AP management addressing and client VLAN mapping are separate functions. Moving all AP management can cause control outages without placing guest clients correctly.

Question 236

A WLC WLAN profile advertises the correct SSID, but clients must authenticate using a single approved shared WPA2 passphrase. Which GUI category should be configured?

  1. WLAN security settings specifying WPA2-Personal/PSK and the approved key.
  2. Only the DNS server list supplied to the clients.
  3. Only the AP radio channel width.
  4. Only the WLAN profile display name.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

WPA2-Personal uses a pre-shared key for client authentication and encryption key derivation on a compatible SSID. The controller WLAN security profile must match the intended client capabilities and approved passphrase. Naming the SSID correctly does not on its own enable protected client association.

Incorrect Answers

B:

DNS configuration takes effect after association and IP setup. It cannot substitute for the required link-layer WPA2 authentication configuration.

C:

Channel width influences RF capacity and interference, not whether the client presents a valid WPA2 PSK. A different width cannot authenticate users.

D:

The display name identifies an administrative or advertised WLAN but does not provide the client authentication key. A password-dependent service needs actual security settings.

Question 237

A controller WLAN for voice handsets requires a prioritized traffic profile to reduce delay for correctly marked real-time packets. Which GUI policy area is most relevant?

  1. Configure an appropriate WLAN QoS policy/profile and validate markings and queuing.
  2. Disable every neighboring AP to remove RF contention.
  3. Increase the DHCP lease time for all handsets.
  4. Change the SSID text to `HighPriorityVoice`.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Wireless QoS profiles influence how access points and the controller handle traffic classes and airtime priorities. A voice workload may require suitable WMM or platform QoS treatment, coordinated with upstream DSCP/queue policies. Simply assigning a voice-oriented name or VLAN does not guarantee packet scheduling under contention.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Removing APs can destroy coverage and is not a proper WLAN QoS profile. The design should maintain connectivity while applying supported traffic priorities.

C:

Longer leases reduce renewal activity but do not schedule congested voice packets ahead of best-effort traffic. The requirement concerns QoS queuing.

D:

Naming the WLAN does not by itself change per-class airtime scheduling or packet markings. QoS behavior requires actual policy configuration.

Question 238

A WLC WLAN security profile is correct but the profile is administratively disabled, so APs do not advertise it. Which GUI operation is needed before clients can discover it?

  1. Enable the WLAN profile and confirm it is associated with the intended AP policy.
  2. Configure a static MAC entry for the SSID name.
  3. Add an IPv4 default route on an unrelated endpoint.
  4. Rotate the WLC syslog server certificate only.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

An administratively disabled WLAN does not provide the configured SSID service even if its security options are valid. Enable the correct WLAN and ensure it is included in the APs’ policy and site assignments. Then verify broadcast/association and downstream network transport separately.

Incorrect Answers

B:

An SSID is not an Ethernet MAC destination and cannot be installed as such in a switch table. The WLAN administrative state is the blocker.

C:

A client route cannot cause an AP to advertise a disabled SSID. Radio service activation precedes client IP routing.

D:

Syslog infrastructure relates to log transport and does not enable a disabled WLAN profile. The advertised service state must be changed directly.

Question 239

A wireless GUI shows a WLAN with QoS profile set to best effort, but real-time voice devices use this SSID. What should be evaluated before changing traffic priority?

  1. Disable WPA2 encryption so voice frames need less processing.
  2. Set every packet to the highest QoS class permanently.
  3. Choose a supported real-time/WMM QoS profile and test congestion behavior against voice requirements.
  4. Use a static OSPF route code to mark voice frames.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

QoS choices should reflect application delay and loss tolerance, and wireless WMM access classes can influence voice airtime treatment. A profile change should be validated end-to-end because wired markings, RF contention and available bandwidth also matter. Blindly raising all traffic priority would remove meaningful class differentiation.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Security removal is not an appropriate QoS strategy and creates unacceptable access risks. Supported encryption and QoS must operate together.

B:

When every flow has the same high priority, the scheduler cannot protect delay-sensitive voice from best-effort demand. Actual classification and traffic engineering are needed.

D:

OSPF route codes identify route origins in a routing table, not packet QoS markings or WLAN WMM classes.

Question 240

A newly deployed WLAN must allow only approved WPA2-Personal clients. The engineer sees that the controller security GUI is set to an open authentication mode. What should be corrected?

  1. Select the approved WPA2-PSK security mode and enter the authorized passphrase.
  2. Keep the WLAN open and hide the SSID instead.
  3. Increase the WLC HTTPS management port number.
  4. Change only the client IPv4 address range.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Open authentication does not verify possession of a shared WLAN key or provide the intended WPA2-PSK protected link. The WLAN security configuration must use the approved personal-key mode supported by its devices. Test a valid and invalid client credential to confirm that access policy is enforced.

Incorrect Answers

B:

SSID hiding is not a cryptographic authentication mechanism and does not supply WPA2 confidentiality. Clients can still discover or infer hidden WLAN traffic.

C:

The management web endpoint port does not govern client 802.11 authentication mode. WPA2-PSK must be configured on the WLAN service.

D:

IP subnets are assigned after link association and do not replace the wireless key handshake. The issue is an open security policy.
