CWSP-208 CWNP Exam Lab Questions

A Wireless Network Management System (WNMS) often uses SNMP to manage APs. SNMPv3 is the secure version of SNMP because it supports authentication, encryption, and message integrity. Unlike SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c, which transmit data (including community strings) in plaintext, SNMPv3 provides secure management communications.

WIPS systems often enforce policies based on MAC addresses and associated hardware fingerprints. If Joe uses a different wireless adapter than the one authorized, it may trigger a rogue device or unauthorized client alarm—even if it’s the same laptop. This behavior is common in environments with strict WIPS enforcement policies.

A. WPA2-Enterprise authentication: The multiple EAP Request/Response exchanges followed by an EAP Success and a 4-Way Handshake (EAPOL-Key frames) indicate 802.1X authentication, characteristic of WPA2-Enterprise.

C. 802.11 Open System authentication: Two Auth frames (request and response) without encryption negotiation signify Open System Authentication — a default in RSN setups.

F. Active Scanning: Begins with Probe Request and Probe Response — part of an active scan process.

G. 4-Way Handshake: Identified by four sequential EAPOL-Key frames, completing the authentication process in WPA2.
