CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 174

A technician is investigating options to secure a small office wireless network. One requirement is to allow automatic logins to the network using certificates instead of passwords. Which of the following should the wireless solution have in order to support this feature?

Answer options

• A. RADIUS
• B. AES
• C. EAP-EKE
• D. MFA

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is RADIUS, as it enables the use of certificates for authentication in wireless networks. AES is an encryption standard that secures the data but does not handle authentication, while EAP-EKE is a specific authentication method that may not support certificate-based logins. MFA, or Multi-Factor Authentication, adds another layer of security but does not directly relate to the requirement of using certificates for automatic logins.
