CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 306

A technician is setting up a wireless access point in a coffee shop. The shop is not concerned with security but only wants to allow customers to have access.
Which of the following configurations should the technician deploy?

Answer options

• A. Use a pre-shared key.
• B. Set up EAP.
• C. Configure RADIUS.
• D. Configure MAC filtering.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as using a pre-shared key will allow customers easy access to the network without complex security measures. Options B and C involve more secure authentication methods that are unnecessary for the shop's requirements, and D, MAC filtering, could limit access rather than facilitate it.
