CNX-001 Exam Dumps : CompTIA CloudNetX Exam

BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) is a wireless personal area network (WPAN) technology designed for applications that require lower energy consumption and reduced cost while maintaining a communication range similar to classic Bluetooth. BLE supportslocation tracking with an accuracy range typically between 1 to 2 meters (approximately 3 to 6 feet), making it ideal for applications that demandfine-grained location services, such as stadium services requiring real-time user proximity data.

According to theCompTIA CloudNetX CNX-001 Official Objectives, under theNetwork Architecture domain, specifically in the subdomain:

"Wireless Technologies: Identify capabilities of BLE, NFC, RFID, and IoT devices within a network environment,"it is outlined that:

"BLE enables proximity-based services and real-time indoor location tracking with high accuracy when used with beacon infrastructure."

"BLE beacons can be deployed throughout a physical space, transmitting signals received by mobile applications to determine a user’s location within a few feet."

"BLE is widely adopted for use cases including indoor navigation, asset tracking, and personalized user engagement, making it a critical technology for modern high-density venues such as stadiums."

In comparison:

SSIDmerely identifies a wireless network and has no location tracking function.

NFCrequires close contact (under 4 cm), and is not suitable for continuous or broad-range tracking.

IoTis an overarching category that includes connected devices and sensors; however, IoT is not a standalone location tracking technology. It may include BLE as a component, butBLE specifically provides the precise location tracking functionality.

These distinctions are explicitly addressed in theCompTIA CloudNetX CNX-001 Study Guide, under the section:

“Emerging Network Technologies and Architectures”, where BLE is described as a key enabling technology for context-aware and location-based services in enterprise and public environments.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

The traceroute shows that the traffic successfully passes through the application development network (192.168.2.1), to the server segment gateway (192.168.1.1), and reaches the serversegment firewall (192.168.4.1). However, it times out immediately after hitting 192.168.4.1, indicating that the traffic is being dropped or filtered at that firewall.

Because other users (outside of the application development segment) are able to SSH into the database server (192.168.1.9), the issue is not with the database server itself or the core network. This points to the server segment firewall blocking traffic originating from the application development subnet (192.168.2.0/24), which is a common practice in segmented network designs unless proper access rules are defined.

Relevant Extract from CompTIA CloudNetX CNX-001 Study Guide — under “Network Segmentation and Firewall Rules”:

“Firewalls between network segments may enforce security policies that restrict access based on source/destination IP and port. Lack of proper allow rules can result in blocked traffic even if routing is successful.”

Other options:

A. The core firewall is not in the traceroute path; it is irrelevant to this specific flow.

B. NSGs (Network Security Groups) apply to cloud workloads, but the behavior and hop-by-hop flow suggest it is a firewall-level issue, not NSG misconfiguration.

D. Bandwidth issues would typically show packet loss or high latency, not consistent timeouts at a specific hop.

SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) enables private, encrypted connections over public internet links and supports policy-based routing for application-aware traffic steering. It offers centralized management, redundancy, and automatic path selection — all aligned with the stated requirements.

Relevant Extract from CompTIA CloudNetX CNX-001 Study Guide — under “Software-Defined Networking and WAN Optimization”:

“SD-WAN uses secure tunnels over the public internet, supports dynamic path selection, and provides application-aware routing, making it ideal for multi-site enterprise connectivity without dedicated links.”

Other options:

A. MPLS requires dedicated circuits and is costly.

C. Site-to-site VPN provides security but lacks intelligent traffic steering.

D. ExpressRoute is a private connection to Azure, not suited for general internet-based multi-site connectivity.
