Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSI) — Question 247

A wireless barcode scanner on a plant floor finds the closest AP that is set to power level 7 statically. However, the scanner has trouble associating and sending data. Which action fixes this issue?

Answer options

• A. Add more APs to the area.
• B. Turn on Band Steering in the controller to move the scanner to 5 GHz.
• C. Add QoS for the application in the network.
• D. Turn on TPC in the controller.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Turning on TPC (Transmit Power Control) in the controller helps optimize the power levels of the access points, ensuring better connectivity for the scanner. The other options, while potentially beneficial, do not directly address the issue of power management, which is key to resolving the scanner's connectivity problems.
