According to Coverage SLE, Asymmetry Downlink classifier tracks a client that transmits at lower data rate than AP to which it is connected.So the correct answer is A.Asymmetry Downlink

According to the Lecture 3 - Radio Frequency and Antenna Fundamentals - Part 2 document2, an extended service set (ESS) is a group of basic service sets (BSSs) that share a common SSID and are connected by a distribution system (DS). Each BSS within the ESS has its own unique BSSID, which is the MAC address of the AP.

In Juniper Networks Mist AI Wireless, Service Level Expectations (SLEs) are used to measure and assure real user experience across the wireless network. Each SLE is built on specific classifiers, which break down failures into root causes such as DHCP, DNS, authentication, RF conditions, or application issues. Understanding which SLEs rely on DHCP classification is essential for accurate troubleshooting.

The two Wireless Assurance SLEs that include a DHCP classifier are Successful Connects and Time to Connect.

The Successful Connects SLE measures whether client devices are able to complete the full connection process successfully. This process includes association, authentication, and critically, DHCP address assignment. If a client fails to obtain an IP address, the connection is considered unsuccessful, and the failure is explicitly classified as a DHCP issue within this SLE.

The Time to Connect SLE measures how long it takes for a client to connect from the moment it initiates association until it is fully usable on the network. One of the key components of this timeline is the DHCP transaction time. Slow DHCP responses, retransmissions, or server delays directly increase the overall connection time, and Mist classifies these delays under DHCP within the Time to Connect SLE.

The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:

Roaming SLE focuses on re-association, authentication, and mobility events, not DHCP, since IP addressing is typically retained during roaming.

Coverage SLE evaluates RF signal strength, SNR, and cell overlap, with no dependency on DHCP.

Throughput SLE measures data transfer performance after connectivity is established and does not analyze DHCP behavior.

Therefore, the correct answer is Successful Connects and Time to Connect, as both SLEs directly depend on and classify DHCP-related performance and failures within Mist Wireless Assurance.

When using location-based services (LBS) at a new warehouse and placing APs on the floor plan with correct scale while ensuring correct location accuracy in this scenario where APs are mounted on trusses 14 feet (4.3 meters) from floor, two actions that should be taken are installing Virtual Beacons in each aisle and configuring height of each AP. So the correct answers are A. Install Virtual Beacons in each aisle and B. Configure height of each AP.

According to Wikipedia1, 802.1X is an IEEE Standard for port-based network access control (PNAC). It provides an authentication mechanism to devices wishing to attach to a LAN or WLAN using Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over wired IEEE 802 networks and over 802.11 wireless networks, which is known as “EAP over LAN” or EAPOL.

The authentication process involves three parties: a supplicant (the client device), an authenticator (the network device such as an access point), and an authentication server (typically a RADIUS server). The supplicant must provide valid credentials to the authenticator before it can access the network resources.

The credentials are exchanged with a RADIUS server prior to the 4-way Handshake because the 4-way Handshake is used to establish encryption keys between the supplicant and authenticator after successful authentication2. The credentials are exchanged with a RADIUS server after the 802.11 Association because the 802.11 Association is used to establish a logical link between the supplicant and authenticator before authentication can take place3.

Two correct statements about Juniper Mist Dynamic Packet Capture are that no configuration is necessary for Mist’s Dynamic Packet Capture and it is automatically attached to a client event displayed on the Insights page. So the correct answers are A. No configuration is necessary for Mist’s Dynamic Packet Capture and B. It is automatically attached to a client event displayed on the Insights page.

According to the Wi-Fi - Radio Modulation - TutorialsPoint document1, 64 QAM is a modulation method that will result in the highest theoretical data rates among the given options. 64 QAM uses both phase and amplitude modulation to encode six bits of information into each transmitted symbol. It can achieve up to 54 Mbps in the 802.11a and g systems.

According to the exhibit, the WLAN has a minimum basic rate of 24 Mbps for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. This corresponds to the high-density data rate setting in Mist, which disables all data rates below 24 Mbps. This setting is recommended for high density designs, where clients have enough signal strength and quality to operate at higher rates.

According to the Marvis - Mist document, unhappy clients is a query that can be used in Marvis to identify users who cannot connect to the network. Unhappy clients shows a list of clients who have experienced poor service level expectations (SLEs) such as connection failures, coverage issues, or low throughput.

 According to the Data Rates - Mist document1, a honeypot AP is an AP that is not associated with your network, but broadcasts your corporate login page and WLAN name. This is a type of rogue AP that tries to trick users into connecting to it and revealing their credentials or other sensitive information.

According to the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller Software Configuration Guide1, roaming is the process of moving a wireless client device from one AP to another while maintaining network connectivity. The client device determines when it is time to connect to another AP based on its own roaming algorithm and criteria.

According to the exhibit, the organization has a total of two licenses for Marvis wireless, and one of them is in use. Therefore, the organization has one available license and one used license for Marvis wireless.

Syslog is a protocol that can be used to forward event messages from Mist to an external log collector.

According to the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller Software Configuration Guide1, syslog is a feature that enables forwarding event messages from Mist to an external log collector. Syslog messages can be sent over UDP or TCP protocols.

In Juniper Networks Mist AI Wireless Real-Time Location System (RTLS) design discussions, multiple location technologies are commonly compared based on accuracy, reliability, and use-case suitability. Among the listed options, Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) provides the greatest location accuracy.

UWB achieves superior accuracy because it uses very short-duration radio pulses across a wide frequency spectrum, enabling extremely precise time-of-flight (ToF) and time-difference-of-arrival (TDoA) measurements. This allows UWB systems to determine device location with decimeter-level precision, often in the range of 10–30 centimeters, even in complex indoor environments. UWB is also highly resistant to multipath interference, which is a major limitation of Wi-Fi and BLE-based positioning systems.

By comparison:

Wi-Fi–based location relies on RSSI and sometimes Angle of Arrival (AoA), typically achieving 3–5 meter accuracy under good conditions.

BLE badges improve accuracy over Wi-Fi by using beacon proximity and BLE signal characteristics, often achieving 1–3 meter accuracy, depending on beacon density and calibration.

SDK-enabled mobile applications can enhance BLE or Wi-Fi accuracy by leveraging motion sensors and device context, but they are still constrained by the underlying RF technology and rarely reach sub-meter precision.

While Juniper Mist’s vBLE and AI-driven probability surfaces deliver industry-leading accuracy for Wi-Fi and BLE-based RTLS use cases such as wayfinding, asset visibility, and proximity engagement, UWB remains the most accurate indoor positioning technology overall. Its precision makes it ideal for high-value use cases such as medical equipment tracking, industrial automation, and secure access control.

Therefore, the correct answer is Ultra wide-band (UWB), as it provides the highest level of location accuracy among the listed solutions.

According to the Create a Mist Account and Organization - Mist document1, two fields that are required when creating a new site are:

Site name, which is a unique identifier for the site within the organization.

Time zone, which is used to display the correct time for events and reports related to the site.

 The AP Offline Marvis Action will consider all APs assigned to sites that have connected to the cloud previously for inclusion. So the correct answer is A. all APs assigned to sites that have connected to the cloud previously.

According to the Mist documentation1, asset tracking is a service that allows you to find key assets and people with detailed analytics based on their location using Mist-supported third-party BLE beacons. To enable asset tracking, you need to configure both the BLE beacons and the Mist cloud settings.

The Show assets check box is a setting in Live View that allows you to display or hide the assets on the floor plan2. If this check box is not selected, you will not be able to see the third-party beacons on Live View.

The Locate this Client as an Asset check box is a setting at the BLE client level that allows you to treat a BLE client as an asset for location purposes3. If this check box is not selected, you will not be able to track the BLE client as an asset.

The WLANs with SSIDs NETGEAR24 and Bob24WiFi will cause adjacent channel interference because they are using overlapping channels in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.

The Clone Site feature in the Juniper Mist dashboard is a powerful tool designed to streamline the deployment of new physical locations by duplicating the environmental and operational logic of an existing "gold standard" site. However, to avoid configuration conflicts (such as duplicate addresses) and to maintain the integrity of the hierarchy, Mist is selective about which objects are carried over during the cloning process.

According to Juniper Mist documentation, only the settings visible on the Site Configuration page are copied to the new site. This specifically includes:

Auto Firmware Upgrade settings (A): The specific versioning (Production vs. RC) and the weekly or daily maintenance windows defined for the site are preserved. This ensures that the new site follows the same lifecycle management policy as the primary site.

RF Templates (B): The radio resource management (RRM) profile assigned to the site is copied. This includes channel planning, bandwidth settings (20/40/80 MHz), and power level constraints tailored for that environment.

Other Site-Level Settings: This also includes Webhooks, Rogue/Honeypot AP detection rules, and Location Services settings.

Conversely, certain objects are explicitly not copied. The Site Location (C) and Site Name are excluded because each site must be geographically unique for accurate mapping and time zone calculation. WLANs (D) are also not copied through the Clone Site function; SSIDs are typically managed at the Organization level via WLAN Templates, which are then mapped to sites or site groups rather than being "hardcoded" into an individual site's local configuration. By cloning the site-specific parameters like RF templates and upgrade schedules, Mist allows administrators to rapidly scale their infrastructure while ensuring the core network access (WLANs) is maintained through the overarching organizational policy.

Two authentication methods that would be used with a guest portal are social login and external portal. So the correct answers are A. social login and B. external portal.

According to the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller Software Configuration Guide2, two authentication methods that can be used with a guest portal are:

Social login, which allows guests to log in using their social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google.

External portal, which allows guests to log in using an external web server that hosts a custom portal page.

In Juniper Networks Mist AI Wireless, the behavior described in this scenario is explained by dynamic rate shifting. Dynamic rate shifting is the mechanism by which a wireless client and access point automatically adjust the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) based on current RF conditions to maintain a reliable connection.

When a client is close to an access point, RF conditions are optimal—high RSSI, high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and low error rates—allowing the client to use higher-order modulation schemes such as 1024-QAM (in 802.11ax). These modulation schemes deliver higher throughput but require very clean RF conditions. As the client moves farther away from the AP, signal strength decreases and noise becomes more impactful, increasing frame errors and retransmissions.

Dynamic rate shifting continuously evaluates transmission success, retry rates, and acknowledgments. When errors increase, the client steps down to lower modulation rates (for example, from 1024-QAM to 256-QAM or 64-QAM) that are more resilient to reduced signal quality. This trade-off sacrifices peak throughput in favor of connection stability and reliability.

The other options describe contributing factors, but not the mechanism itself:

RSSI indicates signal strength but does not control rate selection.

SNR influences modulation decisions but is not the adaptive process.

Free space path loss explains why signal weakens over distance but does not describe how rates are adjusted.

Mist AI Wireless monitors modulation rates, retries, and throughput via advanced telemetry and uses this data in Wireless Assurance SLEs to highlight RF and performance issues. However, the actual process of stepping up or down transmission rates in response to changing RF conditions is governed by dynamic rate shifting.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. Dynamic rate shifting.

In Juniper Networks Mist AI Wireless, WxLAN policies are evaluated using a top-down, first-match logic. This means that when traffic matches a policy condition, that policy is applied immediately, and no further policies are evaluated. Understanding this evaluation order is critical when troubleshooting access discrepancies between user types such as BYOD and guest users.

From the scenario and the exhibit, guest devices are able to access youtube.com, while BYOD devices are blocked. This indicates that:

The guest WxLAN policy allows “All Video and Music” traffic (which includes YouTube).

The BYOD WxLAN policy blocks “All Video and Music” traffic.

The BYOD policy is evaluated before the guest policy.

Because BYOD users are matched to the BYOD label, their traffic hits the BYOD policy first and is denied before it can reach the more permissive guest policy. Simply modifying labels or deleting policies is unnecessary and could introduce unintended access control issues.

The correct and least disruptive solution is to move the BYOD WxLAN policy above the guest policy and then adjust the BYOD policy rules (for example, allowing YouTube or the “All Video and Music” category). By reordering the policies, you ensure that BYOD traffic is evaluated correctly and receives the intended permissions without impacting guest access.

The incorrect options are explained as follows:

Deleting policies (Options A and C) is not best practice and risks breaking segmentation and access control.

Option B is irrelevant, as the contractor policy does not affect BYOD or guest traffic in this scenario.

Therefore, the correct solution is to move the WxLAN policy for BYOD above the policy for guests, making Option D the correct answer.

In a traditional deployment, a Juniper Mist Access Point is a "cloud-first" device, meaning it expects a constant connection to the Mist Cloud to receive configuration updates and report telemetry. When performing an "AP-on-a-Stick" (APoS) site survey, the AP is often powered by a battery pack and moved to various locations where an active Ethernet backhaul or Internet connection is unavailable.3 To ensure the AP continues to broadcast the required SSIDs for signal measurement in this "disconnected" state, two specific settings must be adjusted within the Mist dashboard.

First, AP Config Persistence must be enabled. By default, Mist APs store their configuration in volatile memory; if an AP reboots (which happens when switching battery packs or moving locations) and cannot reach the Mist Cloud, it may fail to reload its previous configuration. Enabling Config Persistence ensures that the AP writes its current configuration to non-volatile flash memory, allowing it to boot up and start broadcasting the programmed SSIDs even in the absence of a cloud connection.4

Second, AP Uplink Monitoring must be disabled. Mist APs are designed with a safety mechanism where, if the AP loses its gateway connectivity (eth0 link or ping to the gateway), it will stop broadcasting SSIDs to prevent "black-holing" client traffic. In a site survey scenario, the Ethernet port is typically connected only to a battery or a passive PoE injector with no data path.5 If Uplink Monitoring remains active, the AP will detect the lack of a backhaul and disable its radios, making the survey impossible. By disabling this feature, the AP is forced to keep its radios active regardless of the uplink status. Together, these two settings allow the AP to function as a standalone signal source, which is essential for accurate RF environment mapping and pre-deployment validation using Mist AI hardware.

In Juniper Networks Mist AI Wireless, Juniper prescribes a top-down, structured troubleshooting methodology when using Service-Level Expectations (SLEs). This approach ensures that engineers identify systemic issues before drilling into individual client problems, preventing misdiagnosis and wasted effort.

The correct troubleshooting order is:

Organization → Site → SLE → Client

Organization of interestTroubleshooting always begins at the organization level. This provides a global view of overall health, license status, widespread outages, and configuration changes that may impact multiple sites. Organization-level visibility helps determine whether the issue is localized or systemic.

Site of interestAfter confirming the organization is healthy, the next step is narrowing the scope to the affected site. Site-level views expose infrastructure issues such as WAN problems, DHCP outages, AP connectivity issues, or RF-wide anomalies that affect many users simultaneously.

SLE of interestOnce scoped to the site, administrators identify the specific degraded SLE (for example, Time to Connect, Coverage, Capacity, or Throughput). Each SLE includes classifiers that pinpoint the likely root cause, such as DHCP, DNS, authentication, or RF interference.

Client of interestOnly after isolating the failing SLE should troubleshooting move to the individual client level. Client views provide detailed timelines, event history, and packet-level insights to confirm whether the issue is isolated or a symptom of a broader problem.

The other answer choices are incorrect because they start with either the SLE or client, which risks overlooking organization-wide or site-wide conditions. Juniper’s recommended workflow ensures efficient, accurate fault isolation and aligns with how Mist AI correlates telemetry and events.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. Organization of interest, site of interest, SLE of interest, client of interest.

Transmissions over Wi-Fi are shared medium and half-duplex.

According to the IEEE 802.11 - Wikipedia document2, two terms that correctly describe transmissions over Wi-Fi are:

Shared medium, which means that multiple devices use the same wireless channel and have to compete for access and avoid collisions.

Half-duplex, which means that devices can either transmit or receive data at a time, but not both simultaneously.

In the Juniper Mist AI ecosystem, the Wireless extensible LAN (WxLAN) is the modern, digital-ready policy framework used to allow or deny user access to network resources. Unlike traditional network architectures that rely on complex, manual access lists (ACLs) or cumbersome VLAN-based segmentation, WxLAN provides a simplified, label-based approach to network security. It enables micro-segmentation, allowing administrators to enforce granular access policies even for devices residing on the same flat Layer 2 network.

The core of a WxLAN policy is the association between Users and Resources using "labels".

Users are identified by labels representing Wi-Fi clients, specific WLANs, Access Points, or AAA attributes such as user groups received from a RADIUS server.

Resources are identified by labels representing specific hostnames, IP addresses, subnets, ports, or even entire application categories.

When creating a WxLAN policy, an administrator defines a set of rules processed from top to bottom. Each rule associates a user label with a resource label and specifies an action: Allow or Block. For example, a policy can be easily configured to allow a "Guest" user group access to "Social Media" while denying them access to "Internal Servers".

This framework is highly flexible, supporting both organization-level policies (within WLAN templates) and site-level policies. Because it is integrated directly into the Mist AI platform and enforced at the network edge (the APs), it provides real-time visibility and control without the need for additional hardware profilers or policy enforcers. By using "intent-based" labels rather than lines of complex CLI syntax, WxLAN simplifies the task of securing an enterprise-wide network for employees, guests, and IoT devices.

The exhibit shows a graph of the client’s roaming history over time. The x-axis represents the time and the y-axis represents the access point ID. Each dot on the graph indicates a roam event where the client switched from one access point to another.

The graph shows that the client roamed between different access points multiple times within a short period of time. This indicates that the client was experiencing frequent roams between different access points, which could affect its network performance and user experience.

Two events that are displayed under Client Events area found on Insights page are Reassociation and DHCP Denied. So the correct answers are A. Reassociation and D. DHCP Denied.
