LPIC-1 Exam 102 v5 (Linux Administrator) — Question 29

What is true about the following command?
nmcli device wifi connect WIFIoI

Answer options

• A. NetworkManager opens a new public hotspot with the SSID WIFIoI.
• B. NetworkManager creates an unconfigured new virtual network interface named WIFIoI.
• C. NetworkManager creates a new wifi connection WIFIoI and activates it.
• D. NetworkManager returns an error in case the connection WIFIoI does not exist.
• E. NetworkManager returns an error because WIFIoI is an invalid wifi device.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Option D is correct because nmcli will return an error if the specified connection WIFIoI does not exist. Options A, B, C, and E are incorrect as they describe actions that do not occur with this command; it does not create a hotspot, generate a virtual interface, or initiate a connection if it is not present.
