QUESTION 2
When you find yourself in Japan, how many 2.4 GHz RF channels for DSSS will be available to you?
A. 2
B. 9
C. 11
D. 14
Correct Answer: D Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: APs transmit and receive RF signals over channels within the 2.4 GHz frequency band. Regulatory domains determine the number of channels that wireless communications can use within the 2.4 GHz frequency band. The Cisco Aironet APs support up to 11 communication channels in North America, 13 channels in Europe (ETSI) and 14 channels in Japan. An access point broadcasts on a specific channel within the available channel range. To provide a stable wireless environment and reduce channel interference, you must specify non-overlapping channels for each AP. The recommended channels are 1, 6, and 11.
QUESTION 3
Which of the following statements regarding 802.11g WLANs is valid? (Choose all that apply.)
A. In WLANs, 802.11g devices are backward compatible to 802.11a devices.
B. The spectral bandwidth is identical to the bandwidth of 802.11b spectral bandwidth in WLANs.
C. In WLANs, 802.11g devices are backward compatible to 802.11b devices.
D. The modulation for 54 Mb is identical to 802.11a modulation at 54Mbps.
Correct Answer: BCD Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: 802.11g This is the most recently approved standard. This standard specifies an operational frequency of 2.4GHz and data rates up to 54Mbps. 802.11g systems are backward compatible with 802.11b systems because of the same operational frequencies. Like 802.11a, 802.11g uses the OFDM modulation scheme to achieve higher speeds. 802.11g uses the same modulation schemes as 802.11a, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). In contrast, 802.11b uses the less power-hungry complimentary code keying.
QUESTION 4
What does the 802.11g protection mechanism permit?
A. 802.11g clients to roam to 802.11b APs
B. the transmission of 802.11b client cards at 802.11g data rates
C. the transmit power of an 802.11g AP to be set at 30 mW
D. same cell transmission of 802.11b client cards with 802.11g clients without collisions
Correct Answer: D Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: When 802.11b clients are associated to an 802.11g access point, the access point will turn on a protection mechanism called Request to Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS). Originally a mechanism for addressing the “hidden node problem” (a condition where two clients can maintain a link to an access point but, due to distance cannot hear each other), RTS/CTS adds a degree of determinism to the otherwise multiple access network. When RTS/CTS is invoked, clients must first request access to the medium from the access point with an RTS message. Until the access point replies to the client with a CTS message, the client will refrain from accessing the medium and transmitting its data packets. When received by clients other than the one that sent the original RTS, the CTS command is interpreted as a “do not send” command, causing them to refrain from accessing the medium. One can see that this mechanism will preclude 802.11b clients from transmitting simultaneously with an 802.11g client, thereby avoiding collisions that decrease throughput due to retries. One can see that this additional RTS/CTS process adds a significant amount of protocol overhead that also results in a decrease in network throughput.
QUESTION 5
The newly appointed Certkiller trainee technician is curious as to which way Cisco/Aironet WLAN radios perform their transmission. What can you tell him?
A. full duplex
B. single side-band
C. half duplex
D. depends upon data rate
Correct Answer: C Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
802.11 environments are shared-media LANs that operate half duplex over a (potentially) noisy radio channel. Since a radio’s receiver is turned off when the transmitter is activated, it is impossible to detect collisions. In addition, the AP must be able to hear all stations associated with it. As all 802.11 environments provide half-duplex communication so Cisco/Aironet Wireless radios perform their transmission using Half duplex communication.
QUESTION 6
What modulation is used when transmitting data at 11 Mbps under the 802.11b standard?
A. QAM
B. BPSK
C. CCK
D. QPSK
E. none of the above
Correct Answer: C Section: (none) Explanation Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: Complementary Code Keying, a set of 64 eight-bit code words used to encode data for 5.5 and 11Mbps data rates in the 2.4GHz band of 802.11b wireless networking. The code words have unique mathematical properties that allow them to be correctly distinguished from one another by a receiver even in the presence of substantial noise and multipath interference.
QUESTION 7
How much of the 2.4 GHz ISM band for transmission is utilized by an 802.11b radio?
A. 1 MHz
B. 11 MHz
C. 22 MHz
D. 83.5 MHz
E. 802.11 MHz
Correct Answer: C Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: In the U.S., the ISM band is divided into 11 channels of 5MHz apiece. An 802.11 wireless network adapter utilizes 22MHz of bandwidth due to signal spreading, so a station operating at one channel will overlap onto adjacent channels. If you’ve ever tried listening to a small alternative radio station that sits on the dial close to a huge adult contemporary advertising machine, you’ll appreciate how channel overlap can cause unacceptable signal distortion.
QUESTION 8
Under the IEEE 802.11a specification, what is the maximum data rate?
A. 11 Mbps
B. 36 Mbps
C. 48 Mbps
D. 54 Mbps
E. 108 Mbps
Correct Answer: D Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The 802.11a standard, which supports data rates of up to 54 Mbps, is the Fast Ethernet analog to 802.11b,
which supports data rates of up to 11 Mbps.
QUESTION 9
Why is it advantageous to have spread spectrum technology OFDM modulation?
A. The range improves as data rates increases.
B. It provides interoperability between 802.11g and 802.11a.
C. it has better performance for multipath interference than CCK modulation.
D. It requires less spectral bandwidth than CCK modulation.
Correct Answer: C Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
OFDM is arguably the best waveform available today for WLAN applications. The main challenge
designers of WLAN equipment face is signal impairment due to multipath. In the indoor environment,
signals can arrive at the antenna by more than one path as shown in Figure.
QUESTION 10

A. green LED off; amber LED solid
B. green LED off; amber LED blink sporadically
C. green LED blinking fast; amber LED blinking sporadically
D. green LED blinking slowly; amber LED blinking sporadically
Correct Answer: CD Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The Aironet client adapter card provides two LEDs to display card and link status information:
???Link Integrity/Power LED The link integrity and power LED provides visual confirmation that the adapter
is receiving power (green) and that it is associated with the wireless network (green and blinks slowly).
_??Link Activity LED The link activity LED provides a visual display of the level of transmit and receive
activity from the client node radio transmitter. During normal operation, the amber LED blinks quickly and
erratically in synch with network traffic.
When a device error occurs, the amber LED blinks in a pattern according to the type of error encountered.
QUESTION 11
What is the common network name used for devices in a WLAN subsystem?
A. Data Beacon Rate (DTIM)
B. Beacon Period (Kusec)
C. SSID
D. All of the above
Correct Answer: D Section: (none) Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: The SSID is often referred to as the wireless LAN workgroup number or the wireless cell number. It is a unique, case-sensitive, and up to 32-characters-long identifier that is appended to network packets. The SSID defines the name of the wireless LAN workgroup and is used to authenticate and establish communications with other wireless bridges and wireless APs sharing the same SSID.
