Question 889

Refer to the exhibit. Which action must be taken to configure a WLAN for WPA2-AES with PSK and allow only 802.11r-capable clients to connect?

    Correct Answer: A

    To configure a WLAN for WPA2-AES with PSK and allow only 802.11r-capable clients to connect, you must enable Fast Transition and FT + PSK. Fast Transition (FT) is the feature that supports 802.11r, which enhances roaming capabilities. By selecting FT + PSK, you ensure that WPA2 with AES encryption is used in conjunction with a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for authentication, and that only clients supporting 802.11r (Fast Transition) can connect.

Discussion
MizuchanOption: A

Fast Transition (FT) is the mechanism used for 802.11r, which is the IEEE standard for fast roaming. By enabling Fast Transition and configuring FT + PSK, the WLAN will use WPA2-AES with a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for authentication and encryption, and only clients capable of 802.11r will be allowed to connect using this configuration.

Answer: Fast Transition (FT) Why not D 'Adaptive Enabled and enable FT + PSK' ? In the context of 802.11r (Fast Transition), "adaptive enabled" refers to a mode where the network dynamically adjusts the roaming behavior based on the capabilities of the wireless clients. If a client supports 802.11r, the network can utilize Fast Transition features to facilitate faster roaming. If the client does not support 802.11r, the network can fall back to traditional roaming mechanisms to ensure compatibility and connectivity for all clients. In this case we want to restrict access to 802.11r clients, so adaptive enabled is incorrect in this scenario.
