CWNP Exam CWNA-109 Topic 5 Question 25 Discussion

Actual exam question for CWNP's CWNA-109 exam
Question #: 25
Topic #: 5
[All CWNA-109 Questions]

You administer a small WLAN with nine access point. As a small business, you do not rum a RADIUS server and use WPA2-Personal for security. Recently, you changed the passphrase for WPA2-personal in all Aps and clients. Several users are now reporting the inability to connect to the network at time and it is constrained to one area of the building. When using scanner, you see that the AP covering that area is online

Suggested Answer: C

Sensors should be deployed in critical areas where WLAN performance must be high for best results when using a WLAN monitoring solution that utilizes distributed sensor devices. A WLAN monitoring solution is a system that collects, analyzes, and reports on the status and performance of a WLAN. A WLAN monitoring solution can use different methods to gather data from the WLAN, such as embedded software agents, external hardware probes, or distributed sensor devices. Distributed sensor devices are dedicated devices that are deployed throughout the WLAN coverage area to monitor the wireless traffic and environment. Distributed sensor devices can perform various functions, such as scanning the spectrum, capturing wireless frames, measuring signal quality, detecting rogue access points, testing connectivity, and generating alerts. Distributed sensor devices can provide more accurate and comprehensive data than other methods, but they also require more planning and deployment costs. Therefore, it is important to deploy sensors strategically in critical areas where WLAN performance must be high, such as high-density zones, high-priority applications, or high-security locations. By deploying sensors in critical areas, the WLAN monitoring solution can ensure optimal WLAN performance and reliability in those areas and identify and resolve any issues or problems that may arise. The other options are not the best places to deploy sensors for best results. Deploying sensors in switching closets is not effective because sensors need to be close to the wireless medium to monitor it properly. Deploying sensors every 5 meters and alongside each AP is not efficient because sensors may overlap or interfere with each other and cause unnecessary redundancy or complexity.Deploying sensors above the plenum on each floor is not practical because sensors may not capture the wireless traffic and environment accurately due to attenuation or reflection from the ceiling materials or objects.Reference:CWNA-109 Study Guide, Chapter 14: Troubleshooting Wireless LANs, page 4831

Wait, do we have a RADIUS server or not? I'm confused, this question is giving me a headache.

I bet the AP is just having a bad day and is feeling a little under the weather. Improper configuration, definitely.

Ah, the good ol' AP failure. Time to call in the tech support team and hope they don't charge an arm and a leg for a replacement.

Sensors in the switching closets? Are you kidding me? Option A is a recipe for disaster. I'd rather hide them in the ventilation ducts, personally.

Hold up, did someone say 'plenum'? That's the perfect spot to hide a few extra sensors, if you know what I mean. Option D all the way!

Option B, definitely. Might as well go for the full sensor coverage, even if it means I'll have to climb a few ladders. Gotta love that hands-on work, am I right?

Hmm, I'm thinking option D. Gotta keep those sensors up in the plenum, where the air is nice and crisp. Less interference, more accuracy, am I right?

Option C seems like the way to go. Why waste time and money on sensors in areas where WLAN performance isn't critical? Keep it simple and targeted.
