2026 QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS FULL
SCORE A+
●● What is WiMAX and it IEEE?
Answer: -Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access
-IEEE 802.16 WWAN
●● In cellular broadband there are two types of cellular networks, what
are they?
Answer: Global System for Mobile (GSM) and Code Division Multiple
Access (CDMA).
GSM is internationally recognized, while CDMA is primarily used in the
US.
●● Typically, it is used by rural homeowners and businesses where cable
and DSL are not available. It is usually more expensive and requires a
clear line of sight.
Answer: Satellite Broadband
●● What is the 802.11 WLAN?
Answer: WiFi/wireless devices are based on IEEE 802.11
,set of protocols and wireless local area network (WLAN) Wi-Fi
computer communication in various frequencies
-Radio frequency is 2.4 GHz
●● What is the 802.11a?
Answer: 5 Ghz frequency band
IEEE standard for transmitting data over a wireless network.
●● What are the two allocated radio frequency in 802.11 wireless
LANs?
Answer: 2.4GHz and 5GHz
●● Which 802.11 standards exclusively use the 5 GHz radio frequency?
Answer: 802.11a
802.11ac
●● Which of the wireless networks typically uses lower powered
transmitters for short ranges?
Answer: WPAN
●● In wireless, what does AP stand for?
Answer: Access Point
,●● What does SSID stand for?
Answer: shared service set identifier (SSID)
●● The wireless router advertises its wireless services by sending
______________containing its shared service set identifier (SSID)
Answer: Beacons
●● What does QoS stand for and what does it do?
Answer: Quality of Service
is a feature of routers and switches which prioritizes traffic so that more
important traffic can pass first.
●● What does WAP stand for and what is it exactly?
Answer: Wireless Access Point
more generally just an access point, is a networking hardware devices
that allows other Wi-Fi devices to connect to a wired network.
●● What does Wi-Fi stand for?
Answer: Wireless Fidelity
technically, this is not the case. Wi-Fi is simply a trademarked term
meaning IEEE 802.11x.
●● What is an Autonomous AP?
, Answer: -Standalone devices like a home router. Where the entire
WLAN configuration resides on the device.
-Sometimes called thick APs
-do not require a controller to control the AP and it use WLSE for
management software
-use for a network that requires only a couple of access points.
●● What does WLC stand for?
Answer: Wireless LAN Controller
●● What does AS stand for?
Answer: Autonomous System
●● What are Controller-based APs?
Answer: -These devices require no initial configuration and are often
called lightweight APs (LAPs).
-Also called thin APs
-Centralized management, configuration, encryption, updates and policy
settings through a centralized controller
●● LAPs
Answer: Lightweight Access Points
