CWNP Certified Wireless Network Administrator CWNA-109 Exam Practice Test

Answer : C

A common feature of MDM solutions that can be used to protect enterprise data on mobile devices iscontainerization. Containerization is a technique that creates a separate and secure environment on the mobile device where enterprise data and applications are stored and accessed. Containerization isolates the enterprise data from the personal data and prevents unauthorized access, leakage, or loss of sensitive information. Containerization can also enforce security policies, encryption, authentication, and remote wipe on the enterprise data and applications. Over-the-air registration, onboarding, and self-registration are features of MDM solutions that facilitate the enrollment and management of mobile devices, but they do not directly protect enterprise data on mobile devices.Reference:[CWNP Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 336; [CWNA: Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 326.

Answer : A

A high-density deployment is a wireless network that is designed to support a large number of users and devices in a relatively small area. This type of deployment is often used in enterprise environments, such as offices, schools, and hospitals.

The use of semi-directional antennas in the deployment described in the question is a good indication that it is a high-density deployment. Semi-directional antennas can be used to focus the signal from an access point in a specific direction. This can help to reduce interference and improve performance in high-density environments.

The other answer choices are less likely to be correct for the following reasons:

SOHO (small office/home office) deployments are typically smaller and less complex than high-density deployments.

Residential deployments are typically even smaller and less complex than SOHO deployments.

Standard office deployments may be high-density, but they may also be lower-density.

It is important to note that the type of deployment is not determined solely by the output power of the access points. However, the use of 10 mW of output power on the 2.4 GHz radios and 20 mW of output power on the 5GHz radios is also consistent with a high-density deployment.

Here are some additional tips for deploying a high-density wireless network:

Use a site survey to determine the optimal placement of access points.

Configure the access points to use non-overlapping channels.

Use semi-directional or directional antennas to focus the signal and reduce interference.

Implement a wireless intrusion prevention system (WIPS) to detect and mitigate rogue access points and other security threats.

Answer : A

When a station scans for available wireless networks, it listens for beacon frames sent by APs. A beacon frame contains information about the BSS, such as SSID, supported rates, channel, security, etc. The station also measures the signal strength of the beacon frames, which indicates how well the station can communicate with the AP. The signal strength is usually expressed in dBm or RSSI units. The higher the signal strength, the better the connection quality and performance.Therefore, the station can use the signal strength of AP beacons as the primary metric to select the best AP for connectivity to the desired BSS12.Reference:CWNA-109 Study Guide, Chapter 6: Wireless LAN Devices and Topologies, page 249;CWNA-109 Study Guide, Chapter 6: Wireless LAN Devices and Topologies, page 243.

Answer : B

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a commonly used method to locate the controllers by the APs in a WLAN that is implemented using wireless controllers. DHCP is a protocol that allows a device to obtain an IP address and other network configuration parameters from a server. In a wireless controller scenario, the APs can use DHCP to request an IP address from a DHCP server, which can also provide the IP address or hostname of the wireless controller as an option in the DHCP response. This way, the APs can discover the wireless controller and establish a connection with it.Alternatively, the APs can also use other methods to locate the wireless controller, such as DNS (Domain Name System), broadcast or multicast discovery, or manual configuration.Reference:1, Chapter 8, page 309;2, Section 5.2

Answer : C

When performing a post-deployment validation survey for voice over Wi-Fi (VoWiFi), an action that must be performed isApplication analysis with an active phone call on a VoWiFi handset. Application analysis is a method of testing the performance of a specific application over the WLAN by measuring parameters such as throughput, latency, jitter, packet loss, MOS score, and R-value. Application analysis with an active phone call on a VoWiFi handset can help to evaluate the quality of service (QoS) and user experience of VoWiFi calls over the WLAN. It can also help to identify any issues or bottlenecks that may affect VoWiFi calls such as interference, roaming delays, or insufficient coverage.Reference:[CWNP Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 549; [CWNA: Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 519.

Answer : B

VHT stands for Very High Throughput, which is a physical layer (PHY) specification that supports the 5 GHz frequency band and supports 80 MHz channels. VHT is used by the IEEE 802.11ac standard, which is also known as Wi-Fi 5. VHT allows for higher data rates and more spatial streams than the previous HT (High Throughput) PHY, which is used by the IEEE 802.11n standard, also known as Wi-Fi 4.HT supports the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, but only supports up to 40 MHz channels12

The other options are not correct because:

ERP (option C) stands for Extended Rate PHY, which is a physical layer specification that supports the 2.4 GHz frequency band and supports up to 20 MHz channels. ERP is used by the IEEE 802.11g standard, which is also known as Wi-Fi 3.ERP allows for higher data rates than the previous DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) PHY, which is used by the IEEE 802.11b standard, also known as Wi-Fi 234

OFDM (option D) stands for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, which is a modulation technique that divides a signal into multiple subcarriers that are spaced orthogonally to each other. OFDM is not a physical layer specification, but a common feature of many PHY specifications, including ERP, HT, and VHT.OFDM allows for higher spectral efficiency and robustness against multipath interference than the previous CCK (Complementary Code Keying) modulation technique used by DSSS34

Answer : D

The likely cause of the problem is thatthe external hard drive is USB 3.0 and is causing a significant increase in the noise floor when in use. USB 3.0 devices are known to generate radio frequency interference (RFI) in the 2.4 GHz band due to their high data transfer rates and harmonics. This RFI can increase the noise floor and degrade the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of WLAN devices operating in the same band. This can result in lower data rates, reduced throughput, increased retransmissions, and poor performance. The problem may not occur outside of business hours or on the user's home network because of different usage patterns or environmental factors.Reference:[CWNP Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 527; [CWNA: Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 497.
