20
Q

You are concerned that wireless access points may have been deployed within your organization without authorization.

What should you do? (Select two. Each response is a complete solution.)

Implement a network access control (NAC) solution.

Check the MAC addresses of devices connected to your wired switch.

Implement an intrusion prevention system (IPS).

Implement an intrusion detection system (IDS).

Conduct a site survey.

A

Check the MAC addresses of devices connected to your wired switch.

Conduct a site survey.

21
Q

You want to connect a laptop computer running Windows to a wireless network.

The wireless network uses multiple access points and WPA2-Personal. You want to use the strongest authentication and encryption possible. SSID broadcast has been disabled.

What should you do?

Configure the connection with a pre-shared key and AES encryption.

Configure the connection to use 802.1x authentication and TKIP encryption.

Configure the connection to use 802.1x authentication and AES encryption.

Configure the connection with a pre-shared key and TKIP encryption.

A

Configure the connection with a pre-shared key and AES encryption.

22
Q

WEP
Kerberos

A

WPA2

23
Q

You have physically added a wireless access point to your network and installed a wireless networking card in two laptops that run Windows. Neither laptop can find the network. You have come to the conclusion that you must manually configure the access point (AP).

Which of the following values uniquely identifies the network AP?

24
Q

The owner of a hotel has contracted with you to implement a wireless network to provide internet access for guests.

The owner has asked that you implement security controls so that only paying guests are allowed to use the wireless network. She wants guests to be presented with a login page when they initially connect to the wireless network. After entering a code provided by the concierge at check-in, guests should then be allowed full access to the internet. If a user does not provide the correct code, he or she should not be allowed to access the internet.

What should you do?

Implement a captive portal

Implement 802.1x authentication using a RADIUS server

Implement pre-shared key authentication

A

Implement a captive portal

25
Q

Which EAP implementation is MOST secure?

On a certificate authority (CA)

A

On a RADIUS server

28
Q

You are replacing a wired business network with an 802.11g wireless network. You currently use Active Directory on the company network as your directory service. The new wireless network has multiple wireless access points, and you want to use WPA2 on the network. What should you do to configure the wireless network? (Select two.)

Use open authentication with MAC address filtering

Configure devices to run in infrastructure mode

Install a RADIUS server and use 802.1x authentication

Configure devices to run in ad hoc mode

A

Configure devices to run in infrastructure mode

Install a RADIUS server and use 802.1x authentication

29
Q

You’ve just finished installing a wireless access point for a client. What should you do to prevent unauthorized users from using the access point (AP) configuration utility?

Isolate the AP from the client’s wired network.

Implement MAC address filtering.

Change the channel used by the AP’s radio signal.

Change the administrative password on the AP.

A

Change the administrative password on the AP.
