CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 1353

What are the two functions of SSIDs? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. uses the maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters
• B. controls the speed of the Wi-Fi network
• C. used exclusively with controller-based Wi-Fi networks
• D. supports a single access point
• E. broadcasts by default

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

The correct answers are A and E because SSIDs can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters and they typically broadcast their presence by default. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as SSIDs do not control network speed, are not exclusive to controller-based networks, and can support multiple access points rather than being restricted to a single one.
