◉ What value does the profile configuration utility in a wireless
client device provide the user?
Answer: The user can configure profiles for each wireless network
during the initial configuration of the client device instead of
manually reconfiguring all of a wireless client's settings each time
the user changes networks
◉ What is a half-duplex device that is only capable of Open Systems
Interconnection (OSI) reference model Layer 2 connectivity?
Answer: A wireless bridge.
◉ As a general rule, how does an increase in effective isotropic
radiated power (EIRP) relate to the link budget range?
Answer: Each 6 decibels (dB) increase in EIRP equates to a doubling
of range.
◉ What specification requirements should you consider when
selecting an amplifier for a wireless local area network (LAN)?
Answer:
, ◉ Which term describes the RF loss incurred when an item or
component is introduced into an RF circuit?
Answer: Insertion loss
◉ Which of the Institute of Electronics Engineers (IEEE) wireless
LAN standards listed below is the only one that includes infrared
technology?
Answer: 802.11
◉ Operation as an IEEE 802.11ac device occurs only in the 5
gigahertz (GHz) Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (U-
NII) radio band, so how are 802.11ac devices able to maintain
compatibility with earlier standards that operate in the 2.4 GHz
Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) radio bands?
Answer: IEEE 802.11ac devices also operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM
range.
◉ What are some Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
regulations within which wireless local area networks (LAN) and
devices must operate
Answer:
◉ What three levels of security does virtual private network (VPN)
technology provide in a wireless local area network (LAN)?
