Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 722

An engineer is implementing a new SSID on a Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series WLC that must be broadcast on 6 GHz radios. Users will be required to use EAP-TLS to authenticate. Which wireless Layer 2 security method is required?

Answer options

• A. WPA2 Enterprise
• B. WPA2 Personal
• C. WPA3 Enterprise
• D. WPA3 Personal

Correct answer: C

Explanation

WPA3 Enterprise is required because it supports stronger security protocols and is necessary for EAP-TLS authentication. WPA2, whether Enterprise or Personal, does not provide the same level of security as WPA3. Therefore, options A and B are incorrect, and while WPA3 Personal is secure, it does not support the enterprise-level authentication needed in this scenario.
