CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 271

A network administrator has deployed a secure wireless network that authenticates using Active Directory network credentials so individual users are uniquely identified when connected to the WLAN. Which of the following wireless technologies has the administrator configured?

Answer options

• A. WEP
• B. EAP-PEAP
• C. PSK
• D. CCMP-AES

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, EAP-PEAP, as it is a protocol that allows secure authentication of users in a WLAN by leveraging Active Directory. The other options like WEP and PSK do not provide the same level of user-specific authentication, while CCMP-AES is an encryption protocol that does not deal with user authentication.
