E) Passive, all channels is too broad. We need focused data for voice and tracking.

I think B) Active, using a voice handset is best. It tests voice quality directly.

I’m surprised there’s no mention of 802.11ac for better performance!

Passive surveys can miss a lot of real-world issues, so I’m not sold on that.

Wait, why not just do a predictive survey? Seems easier.

Haha, "lowest common denominator client" - that's IT support in a nutshell right there.

B) Active, using a voice handset? Seriously? Who even uses voice on a WLAN these days?

I’m leaning towards option B, using a voice handset for the active survey. It seems like the most direct way to test voice quality, but I’m not confident about the specifics.

I feel like a passive survey could work, especially if we optimize the channels first. But would that really cover the voice and location tracking requirements?

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think predictive surveys are often used for planning, but they might not give us the real-world data we need.

I think we might need an active survey since voice support is crucial for the WLAN. But I'm not entirely sure if using a voice handset is the best approach.

Predictive survey could work, but I'm not sure if that fully addresses the voice and location tracking requirements. I might need to dig deeper into the differences between the survey types.

I'm leaning towards option C - an active survey using a lowest common denominator client. That seems like it would best simulate the actual client devices.
