6 bytes

Which of the following statements regarding the 802.11ac standard is NOT accurate?

The use of multiple antennas on an access point to issue a signal to one or more receivers is enabled by what 802.11 innovation?

multiple input-multiple output (MIMO)

A wireless node that is in active scanning mode transmits what special type of frame in order to find available access points?

probe frame

What type of device can be used to assess the quality of a wireless signal?

spectrum analyzer

When troubleshooting wireless issues, what statement is accurate?

Access points that use overlapping channels can cause interference with each other if they are too close.

The 802.11 standard specifies the use of what technique in order to minimize the potential for collisions?

Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA)

How does refraction affect the propagation of a wireless transmission?

It distorts the signal as it travels into and through a different transmission medium.

At what layer of the OSI model do the 802.11 standards vary?

Physical

What optional protocol can be used in 802.11 to reserve the medium for one node's use?

RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send)

You are troubleshooting a client's wireless networking issue. Which of the following will prevent the client from connecting to the network?

The client has a wireless profile configured for the "campus" SSID, but the access point is broadcasting the "CAMPUS" SSID.

How does the 802.11 data frame indicate how a large packet should be fragmented?

The sequence control field indicates how packets will be subdivided.

Diffraction has what affect on a wireless signal's propagation?

The signal is split into secondary waves that continue in the direction in which they split

Healing messages are a feature of what smart home protocol?

Z-wave
