CompTIA Network+ (N10-009) — Question 381

A network administrator needs to deploy a new wireless solution at a customer site. All external users must provide credentials before being granted access to the wireless solution. Which of the following would best meet the requirements of this installation?

Answer options

• A. Adjust the bands to be non-overlapping.
• B. Set up lightweight access points.
• C. Enable enterprise authentication.
• D. Add a captive portal for the guest network.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as a captive portal requires users to log in with credentials before they can access the network, fulfilling the requirement for external user authentication. Options A, B, and C do not provide a mechanism for user credential verification and thus do not meet the specified needs.
