I remember discussing WEP and how it relates to shared key authentication, so I think option D might be misleading since WEP is often associated with it.

I feel like I’ve seen a question about Fit APs and shared keys before, so I’m leaning towards option C being true, but I can't recall the details.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about shared key authentication not being very scalable, so maybe option B is incorrect?

I think option A sounds familiar because we talked about how both the STA and AP need to have the same key for shared key authentication to work.

I remember discussing shared key authentication in class. I'm pretty sure A is the right answer, as the key needs to be preconfigured between the STA and AP for it to work.

Wait, I'm confused. Isn't shared key authentication supposed to provide high security? Option B doesn't seem right then. I need to re-read the question carefully.

Okay, let me think this through. Shared key authentication means the STA and AP have the same key, so A seems like the correct answer. I'll go with that.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I think the shared key needs to be preconfigured, but I'm not sure if that's the only requirement for shared key authentication.
