Implementing Cisco Wireless Network Fundamentals (WIFUND, legacy) — Question 53
The corporate network locates all RADIUS servers at the centralized data center for authentication. The remote offices use access points operating in H-REAP mode using v5.0 code with various local and central switch WLANs. When a remote office has lost connectivity to the main corporate network due to a WAN outage, which two statements correctly describe the status of that remote office when H-REAP access points are operating in standalone mode? (Choose two.)
Answer options
- A. All Cisco APs with 16 MB of RAM or more can operate as standalone H-REAP.
- B. All clients will continue association until the respective authentication timers expire.
- C. If configured, clients using WPA or WPA2 with PSK and locally switched WLANs will continue to operate.
- D. If configured, locally switched WLANs will continue operation using the backup RADIUS server feature.
- E. If configured, locally switched WLANs will continue operation using Local-EAP for EAP-LEAP and EAP-FAST for up to twenty users.
- F. If configured, locally switched WLANs will continue operation using Local-EAP for EAP-LEAP, EAP-FAST, EAP-TLS, and EAP-PEAP for up to twenty users.
Correct answer: C, E
Explanation
The correct answers are C and E because when operating in standalone mode, H-REAP access points can continue to support clients using WPA or WPA2 with PSK and locally switched WLANs. Additionally, Local-EAP for EAP-LEAP and EAP-FAST allows continued operation for up to twenty users. Options A, B, D, and F are incorrect because they either misrepresent the functionality of H-REAP in standalone mode or refer to configurations that do not apply under the given conditions.
