  Answers to Practice Test Questions

 179.  A.  A wireless personal area network (WPAN) is a small wireless network that usually 

has a maximum distance of 30 feet. It is used for personal wireless connectivity to the 

Internet via wireless. Wireless LANs (WLANs) are traditional wireless networks that we 

use to connect to our home and work networks. Bluetooth is a common WPAN; it allows 

for hands-free calling, monitoring of your pulse with wearable devices, and many other 

services we have come to rely on. Wireless metro area networks (WMANs) are wireless 

networks that span a fairly large geographic area like a city or suburban area. A wireless 

wide area network (WWAN) is used for Internet connectivity and usually delivered over 

cellular networks.

 180.  C.  When installing a wireless access point onto a WLC, the port should be configured 

as a trunk port. Configuring the port as a trunk port will allow management traffic and 

data traffic to be tagged. This type of configuration will also future-proof the design for 

additional networks in the future. Wireless access points are configured with access ports 

when a controller is not being used and the AP is running in an autonomous mode. There 

is no such thing as a wireless port configuration. Configuring the port as a LAG port is 

not possible since APs normally only have one interface and LAGs require two or more for 

aggregation.

 181.  B.  Telnet is used for terminal emulation over a network to a device expecting terminal 

emulation, such as a router, switch, or access point. Simple Network Management 

Protocol (SNMP) is a management protocol for sending and receiving network events 

and statistics. HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) allows for web-based configuration 

of devices. Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a network utility that allows for file 

transfer, usually for the maintenance of devices such as uploading a new IOS.

 182.  A.  The IP address or hostname entered in privileged exec mode will create a direct Telnet 

request. Alternatively, you can specify the command 

telnet 198.56.33.3. The command 

connect 198.56.33.3 is incorrect. The command remote 198.56.33.3 is incorrect. The 

command 

vty 198.56.33.3 is incorrect.

 183.  D.  TACACS+ uses TCP and port 49 for communications between the switch or router and 

the AAA server. All of the other options are incorrect.

 184.  C.  Secure Shell (SSH) is a secure console emulation method for the administration of 

network devices. It allows for both the sender and receiver to create an encrypted session, 

so data cannot be intercepted. Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a 

protocol that authenticates users, and it does not provide encryption. HyperText Transfer 

Protocol (HTTP) is a method for relaying Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) from 

a server to a requesting host; it does not provide encryption. SSH File Transfer Protocol 

(SFTP) is a protocol that provides encryption for file transfers, but it does not provide 

management access.
