Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSD) — Question 184

An engineer must perform a predictive wireless survey to indicate the number of access points required. The engineer has created a new project and imported the floor plan. Which step must be taken next for accurate AP placement?

Answer options

• A. Analyze the network.
• B. Identify the coverage area.
• C. Set the scale.
• D. Place the access points.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Setting the scale is crucial as it ensures that the floor plan is accurately represented in the survey tool, which directly affects the AP placement. Without the correct scale, the coverage area and placement of access points may be miscalculated. Analyzing the network and identifying the coverage area are important but come after ensuring the scale is set correctly.
