HPE Aruba Certified Network Security Associate (ACNSA) — Question 52

An administrator stages an AP and re-provisions it as a RAP from the Mobility Master (MM). When re-provisioning the RAP, the administrator must enter a user's credentials.
What is the purpose of these credentials?

Answer options

• A. to authenticate the RAP device
• B. to authenticate users on wireless ports
• C. to authenticate users on wired and wireless ports
• D. to authenticate users on wired ports

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The credentials are required to authenticate the RAP device itself, ensuring that only authorized devices can connect to the network. The other options refer to user authentication on different ports, which is not the focus of this credential requirement.
