Cisco Meraki Solutions Specialist — Question 22
A legacy wireless client, supporting WPA2 security, cannot associate to a guest wireless network. What is the cause?
Answer options
- A. The guest wireless network is configured with layer 2 LAN isolation.
- B. The guest wireless network is configured with Open (no encryption).
- C. The guest wireless network is configured with WPA3 transition mode with 802.1w set to “Enabled.”
- D. The guest wireless network is configured with Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE) with 802.1w set to “Required.”
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D because Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE) does not support WPA2, preventing a legacy client from connecting. Options A and B do not describe security settings that would specifically block WPA2 clients. Option C involves WPA3, which is also incompatible with WPA2-only devices.
