Refer to the exhibit. A Cisco WLC administrator is creating a new wireless network with enhanced SSID security. The new network must operate at 2.4 Ghz with 54 Mbps of throughput. Which set of tasks must the administrator perform to complete the configuration?
To meet the requirements of operating at 2.4 GHz with a throughput of 54 Mbps and enhancing SSID security, the administrator should uncheck the Broadcast SSID check box and set the Radio Policy to 802.11g only. The 802.11g standard operates at 2.4 GHz and supports a maximum throughput of 54 Mbps. Unchecking the Broadcast SSID option will hide the network name (SSID), adding a layer of security.
Should be "C". 802.11g uses 2.4GHz and throughput up to 54 Mbit/s. “enhanced SSID security” = hiding SSID, so we must uncheck Broadcast SSID option
Option C is correct:(Answer from ChatGPT) Unchecking the Broadcast SSID check box will hide the network name (SSID) from being broadcasted to wireless clients. Setting the Radio Policy to 802.11g only will allow the network to operate at 2.4 GHz with 54 Mbps of throughput. Option A is incorrect because setting the Radio Policy to 802.11a/g only will enable both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, which may not be necessary for the requirements given. Option B is incorrect because checking the Broadcast SSID check box will broadcast the network name, which could potentially make it easier for attackers to target the network. Option D is incorrect because setting the Radio Policy to 802.11a only will disable the 2.4 GHz band, which is required for the requirements given.
802.11a operating frequency is 5GHz - it is not correct answer
The answer is C
802.11a is 5 Ghz and we want 2.4 only ("must" operate at 2.4) so A is incorrect.
it´s C
it must be C
C. Uncheck the Broadcast SSID check box and set the Radio Policy to 802.11g only. (enhanced SSID security) ( must operate at 2.4 Ghz)
both 802.1a/g have a maximum data rate of 54Mbps, unfortunately only 802.1g provides for 2.4, 802.1a provides for 5Ghz
"""enhanced SSID security""" is disable broadcast SSID, 300IQ move
Based on Cisco's article, disabling SSID broadcast provides some security, so answer C should be correct. "This article guides you on how to successfully disable SSID broadcast on your access point for added security" https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/smb/wireless/cisco-small-business-100-series-wireless-access-points/smb5177-disable-ssid-broadcast-on-a-wireless-access-point.html
as hiding your SSID does not provide complete security, and other methods such as encryption and a strong password should also be used1. In practice, hiding the SSID makes no difference whatsoever to the security of your network2. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not hide your SSID also any hacker with a simple network sniffing tool can find out your SSID in seconds, even if you are not broadcasting it.
OK it makes no difference to a hacker, but it might help to hide it from other kind of criminals, and we have to choose an answer. I go with C, it looks more secure (except for hackers).
For me, the correct answer is the b. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11 It uses the same frequencies as the 802.11b standard i.e. the 2.4 GHz band and provides a theoretical speed of 54 Mb/s which in reality translates into a net speed of 24.7 Mb/s, similar to that of the 802.11a standard .
but we must enhance ssid security that why we uncheck broadcast SSID
