CWNP CWSP-208 Exam - Topic 4 Question 8 Discussion

Actual exam question for CWNP's CWSP-208 exam

Question #: 8
Topic #: 4

Given: A large enterprise is designing a secure, scalable, and manageable 802.11n WLAN that will support thousands of users. The enterprise will support both 802.1X/EAP-TTLS and PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2. Currently, the company is upgrading network servers as well and will replace their existing Microsoft IAS implementation with Microsoft NPS, querying Active Directory for user authentication.

For this organization, as they update their WLAN infrastructure, what WLAN controller feature will likely be least valuable?

AWPA2-Enterprise authentication/encryption

BInternal RADIUS server

CWIPS support and integration

D802.1Q VLAN trunking

ESNMPv3 support

SNMPv3 support? Seems like a weird choice for least valuable.

Wait, why would an internal RADIUS server be less valuable?

VLAN trunking is pretty standard, can't see it being least valuable.

I think WIPS support is overkill for most setups.

WPA2-Enterprise is essential for security.

I’m leaning towards SNMPv3 support being the least valuable, but I’m not confident since monitoring is still important for large networks.

I practiced a similar question about WLAN features, and I think WIPS support could be less critical if they have other security measures in place.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like the internal RADIUS server might be less important since they’re using Microsoft NPS now.

I remember discussing how WPA2-Enterprise is crucial for secure authentication, so I think it might not be the least valuable feature.

This is a tricky one. The question provides a lot of context, so I need to carefully consider each option. I'm leaning towards WIPS support and integration being the least valuable, since the focus seems to be more on authentication and scalability.

Okay, let me think this through. The enterprise is focused on a secure and scalable WLAN, so WPA2-Enterprise is a must-have. I'd say 802.1Q VLAN trunking is probably the least valuable feature here.

I think the least valuable feature would be SNMPv3 support. The question doesn't mention any need for advanced network management, so that feature might not be as critical.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions supporting both 802.1X/EAP-TTLS and PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2, so WIPS support and integration could be important for security.

This question seems pretty straightforward. The enterprise is already upgrading to Microsoft NPS for authentication, so an internal RADIUS server would be redundant.

WIPS support and integration could be a bit overkill for this use case. They're probably better off focusing on the core WPA2-Enterprise and authentication features.

I agree with Ernest. Since they're upgrading to Microsoft NPS, VLAN trunking doesn't seem like a critical requirement for their WLAN infrastructure.

I agree with Clarinda, Internal RADIUS server may not be as important in this scenario.

I think 802.1Q VLAN trunking would be the least valuable feature for this enterprise. They're already using Active Directory for user authentication, so an internal RADIUS server might not be necessary.
