PIN code

What wireless technologies enables identification and tracking of tags attached to objects?

RFID (Radio-frequency Identification)

What refers to the capability of a mobile device to share its Internet connection with other devices?

Tethering

T/F Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) simplifies the configuration of new wireless networks by enabling non-technical users to easily set up new networks, configure network security settings and add new devices to an existing network. However, due to its known security vulnerabilities, WPS is not recommended and should be disabled.

True

What wireless security protocols has been discouraged in favor of newer standards due to know vulnerabilities resulting from implementing flaws?

WEP

Which wireless network type has a design that uses mesh topology?

WMN (Wireless Mesh Network)

Which of the following is the best method to secure a small network lacking an authentication server?

WPA2-PSK (AES)

What WAN(wide area network) technologies uses cell towers that provide wireless signal coverage for mobile devices?

WWAN (Wireless Wide Area Network)

What is a long-distance line-of-sight Internet service?

WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access)

A popular, short-range wireless technology used for connecting various personal devices in a WPAN is known as:

bluetooth

A wireless network Access Point (AP) or site offering public wireless Internet access is commonly called a:

hotspot

The process of establishing a connection between Bluetooth devices (e.g. between a Bluetooth enabled headset and a Bluetooth-enabled phone) is known as:

pairing

What is the channel bandwidth specified in the IEEE 802.11g standard?

20 MHz

What is the channel bandwidth specified in the IEEE 802.11b standard?

22MHz

The IEEE 802.11g standard is backwards compatible with:

802.11b

What best describes the disabling of an SSID broadcast?

It makes a WLAN harder to discover

T/F: The term "Channel bonding" refers to a technique that allows for combining adjacent channels to increase the amount of available bandwidth.

True

The IEEE 802.11ac standard specifies available channel bandwidth options of:

-20 MHz -40MHz -80 MHz -160 MHz

What are characteristic features of the IEEE 802.11ac wireless standard?

-5.0 GHz frequency band -MU-MIMO -Maximum data signaling rate of up to 6.77 Gbps

-Z-Wave -Zigbee

What are characteristic features of satellite Internet connections?

-high signal latency -interference (weather dependent) -relatively high cost in comparison to terrestrial links

What are ways of creating a wireless/cellular data network by using a mobile device?

-hotspot -tethering -bluetooth

What are the characteristic features of a WPA/WPA2 Enterprise mode?

-suitable for large corporate networks -requires RADIUS authentication server

What channel options would allow three Wireless Access Points (WAPs) to be set up on non-overlapping channels?

1,6,& 11

What is the channel bandwidth specified in the IEEE 802.11a standard?

20 MHz

T/F: Long Term Evolution (LTE) is a wireless communications standard for mobile devices and wireless hotspots. LTE is much faster than the older generation of 2G and 3G cellular networks. Both LTE and its later upgrade, LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), are often marketed as 4G standards.

True

T/F: Multiple Input / Multiple Output (MIMO) is a wireless technology that allows for significant increase in data throughput due to the use of multiple antennas and multiple data streams.

True

T/F: Setting up a wireless network to operate on a non-overlapping channel allows multiple networks to coexist in the same area without causing interference.

True

T/F: The term "Airplane mode" refers to a device function that allows a user to disable wireless transmission capability.

True

T/F: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) are encryption standards designed for securing wireless networks. WEP is an older standard and is not recommended because of its vulnerabilities. WPA was designed as an interim replacement for WEP, and WPA2 was introduced as the official standard that offers the strongest security of the three.

True

The IEEE 802.11n standard specifies available channel bandwidth options of:

-20 MHz -40 MHz

The IEEE 802.11n standard offers backward compatibility with:

802.11g/b/a
