CompTIA Network+ (N10-006) — Question 51

A technician wants to configure a wireless network to identify itself to visitors by including the word "Guest" in the name.
Which of the following would allow users to identify a wireless network by name?

Answer options

• A. ESSID broadcast
• B. ARP broadcast
• C. BSSID broadcast
• D. DHCP broadcast A

Correct answer:

Explanation

The correct answer is A, ESSID broadcast, as it is the name of the wireless network that is advertised to users, allowing them to identify the network. The other options do not pertain to network naming; ARP is used for resolving IP addresses, BSSID identifies the access point, and DHCP relates to IP address assignment.
