Cisco 300-430 Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (300-430 ENWLSI) Exam Practice Test

 The customizable security report in Cisco Prime Infrastructure that shows rogue access points (APs) detected since a point in time is the “New Rogue APs” report. This report is specifically designed to track and list all newly detected rogue APs within the network from a specified time, allowing network administrators to quickly identify unauthorized devices. References := ( CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide )

The correct command to add a VLAN with a specific ID to a FlexConnect group in a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) is ‘config flexconnect group BranchA-FCG vlan 30 add’. This command specifies the FlexConnect group name ‘BranchA-FCG’ and the VLAN ID ‘30’, followed by the action ‘add’, which is consistent with Cisco’s CLI syntax for WLC configuration. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

 When a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) is added to Cisco ISE as a network device for authentication purposes, it is crucial to verify the shared secret configured within the network device settings. The shared secret is used to secure communication between the WLC and ISE, ensuring that the authentication messages are encrypted and authenticated. If the shared secret does not match on both the WLC and ISE, the authentication will fail. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

Fastlane is a feature developed by Apple and Cisco that provides a higher-quality user experience for critical business applications. To implement Fastlane, the WLAN must use the Platinum QoS profile, which is designed to prioritize business-critical traffic and applications. Since the IT department has updated the iPads to a specific version, it is important to ensure that the QoS settings align with the requirements of Fastlane to maintain application performance and security.

The angle of arrival (AoA) method for client tracking determines the location of a wireless device using triangulation. This technique involves measuring the angle at which the signal arrives at different receivers (access points) and using this information to pinpoint the device’s location within the network. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

The output observed in Prime Infrastructure suggests that there is at least one strong interferer impacting connectivity at this site. This conclusion is drawn from observing areas marked with intense red coloring indicating high levels of RF interference which could degrade wireless performance significantly if not addressed. 

 In FlexConnect deployments with local switching, dynamic VLAN assignments are facilitated by Cisco ISE through the use of specific RADIUS attributes. The Tunnel-Private-Group-ID attribute is essential for communicating the VLAN ID to the access point, which then applies it to the wireless client after successful authentication.

 Cisco DNA Center is likely ignoring the interference detected by the AP because it includes only Cisco CleanAir interferers in the AP health score (option C), and the interference is less than or equal to 30% on the 5 GHz radio (option D). Cisco DNA Center’s AP health score algorithm may not consider interference that falls below a certain threshold or interference that is not identified as a CleanAir event. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, particularly the chapters on Cisco DNA Center and CleanAir technology.

The issue is likely caused by the CPU ACL on the controller, which is blocking HTTP/HTTPS traffic from the guest clients. When a WLAN with Web Authentication is used, the wireless client’s browser is redirected to a web page for authentication. If the CPU ACL is configured to only allow controller web management traffic from the IT subnet, it may inadvertently block the necessary HTTP/HTTPS traffic for the Web Authentication process, leading to a timeout on the wireless client browser. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, specifically the sections discussing CPU ACLs and their impact on network traffic.

To meet the requirement of allowing employees to easily onboard their personal devices and visitors to connect without reception desk intervention, configuring a self-registration guest portal on Cisco ISE is the appropriate solution. This feature enables guests to create their own accounts and gain network access, streamlining the process for both employees’ personal devices and visitors. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

To separate different types of client authentication on a Cisco ISE deployment, policy sets and policy groups can be used. Policy sets allow the creation of policies based on conditions such as device type, while policy groups categorize clients for the application of specific policies. References: Cisco ISE documentation on policy sets and policy groups will have detailed information.

CMX Facebook Wi-Fi is designed to provide limited access to the network before a user completes authentication. This feature allows HTTP traffic only before authentication while blocking all other traffic, which corresponds with option A. Additionally, it intercepts HTTP traffic to redirect the user to the authentication page, which aligns with option D. The purpose of these restrictions is to ensure that users can be directed to log in via Facebook for Wi-Fi access without compromising network security by allowing unchecked access. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

When performing a Cisco Hyperlocation accuracy test, the relevant parameters include the X, Y real location and the client MAC address. The X, Y coordinates provide the actual location data needed for the test, while the client MAC address identifies the specific device being located.

 To provide guests access using social media authentication, the engineer must configure the “Social Connect” service. This service allows guests to use their Facebook credentials, among other social media platforms, to authenticate and gain network access. It simplifies the guest access process by leveraging existing social media accounts for authentication. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

To load balance the data coming through NMSP from the WLCs and spread the load between multiple CMX servers, the configuration cmxctl config feature flags nmsplb.cmx-ap-grouping true should be used. This enables the load balancing feature and helps optimize the data flow for APs in a large network environment. References: The configuration for load balancing in CMX is explained in the certification guide, which outlines the commands and flags necessary to manage data flow efficiently.

The issue with the Cisco CMX dashboard not showing any data can be resolved by integrating the Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) with the CMX system. The CMX solution relies on data from the WLCs to track and detect users’ presence in the office area. Without the WLCs being added to CMX, the system cannot collect the necessary analytics and location data for its operations.

Client profiling involves using various properties to identify and classify wireless clients. The HTTP user agent can provide information about the client’s device type and browser, DHCP can reveal details about the client’s network configuration and requests, and the MAC OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) can be used to determine the manufacturer of the device. These properties are crucial for profiling because they offer insights into the device’s capabilities and identity. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

For a network with 3000 APs and 7000 IPS licenses, scaling to a high-end server is appropriate. This will provide the necessary resources and capabilities to support the large number of APs and the extensive licensing requirements for the Intrusion Prevention System.

For high availability configuration in Cisco CMX servers to work correctly, both primary and secondary servers must be identical in terms of installation type (physical or virtual) and size (resources allocated like CPU, RAM). If there is a mismatch in these aspects, it can lead to failure in setting up high availability as they need to synchronize data between them seamlessly. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

To create an account for CLI access to an access point for troubleshooting, the WLC must be configured to allow user access with the capability to make changes. The ReadWrite User Access Mode enables an engineer to have full read and write access to the AP’s configuration via the CLI, which is necessary for performing troubleshooting tasks. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

The Network Mobility Services Protocol (NMSP) is the protocol used by Cisco Mobility Services Engine (MSE) to communicate with Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs). For NMSP messages to successfully pass through a firewall, the correct port must be allowed. The default port for NMSP traffic is TCP 16113. Therefore, to ensure communication between MSE and WLC using NMSP, TCP port 16113 must be allowed on the firewall. References := ( CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide )

 For a large company requiring support for 32 VLANs for different departments, the most efficient solution is to configure one single SSID and use Cisco ISE for dynamic VLAN assignment based on user roles. Cisco ISE can classify users into different groups and assign them to the appropriate VLANs. This approach reduces the complexity of managing multiple SSIDs and simplifies the user experience while maintaining a high level of security and network segmentation. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

When FlexConnect APs are in standalone mode due to losing connection to the WLC, they should still be able to serve clients if local switching and authentication are enabled. The issue described occurs because FlexConnect Local Authentication is disabled. With local auth enabled, the AP can authenticate clients directly, without needing to communicate with the WLC, thus allowing the SSID to remain advertised and clients to stay connected even if the WLC is unreachable. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

On the Global Configuration page of a Wireless LAN Controller (WLC), for an Access Point (AP) to use IEEE 802.1X for authenticating to the wired infrastructure, it is necessary to configure a RADIUS shared secret. This secret will be used by the AP as part of its credentials when communicating with a RADIUS server during the authentication process. References: (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

 If all APs are receiving multicast traffic instead of only those that need it, it indicates that Multicast Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping is not enabled. IGMP snooping is a feature that allows a network switch to listen to IGMP network traffic and ensure that multicast packets are only sent to the ports associated with interested receivers, thus preventing unnecessary traffic on the network. References := CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

In Cisco ISE version 2.1 for BYOD with a Single SSID setup, 802.1x must be configured to provide the necessary layer of security and to facilitate the device registration process. 802.1x authentication allows for the use of EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) to authenticate users before they can access the network. This ensures that only authorized devices can join the BYOD network, providing a secure method for device onboarding and access control. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

When deploying Cisco Hyperlocation, it is important to enable the feature on both the wireless LAN controller and Cisco CMX to ensure proper functionality and data accuracy. Additionally, if the Cisco CMX server is a VM, a high-end VM is required to handle the processing demands of Cisco Hyperlocation deployments. References: The considerations for deploying Cisco Hyperlocation are covered in the certification guide, which emphasizes the importance of enabling the feature on both the controller and CMX, as well as the hardware requirements for the CMX server.

A Public-Signed SAN (Subject Alternative Name) certificate allows multiple domain names to be protected with a single certificate. This is useful in a distributed environment like a guest portal on Cisco ISE, where there may be multiple nodes with different Common Names (CNs). Using a SAN certificate can prevent CN mismatch errors during SSL/TLS handshakes. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

In a FlexConnect group with local switching but central DHCP, clients can use features like multicast and static IP without any issues. However, fast roaming, which allows clients to move seamlessly between access points with minimal delay, requires the access points to handle client information locally. If the configuration is changed to allow local DHCP, then the access points can cache client credentials, enabling fast roaming.

TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus) is recommended for managing device access as it provides a more granular level of control over user authentication and authorization than RADIUS. It allows for different levels of access based on user identity by interfacing with external repositories such as Active Directory or LDAP. This protocol helps in distinguishing between different users and assigning appropriate access rights based on their roles within an organization. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

A rogue AP with open authentication poses a high security risk as it does not require a password, making it easy for unauthorized users to connect. If the rogue AP accepts clients, it can potentially capture sensitive data from those clients. A foreign SSID indicates that the AP is not part of the managed network and could be maliciously installed to lure unsuspecting users. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, focusing on security risks associated with rogue APs.

 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) is the trust model that must be configured on the switch ports to which the APs are connected in local mode. This is because DSCP provides a way to classify and manage network traffic and to provide QoS. DSCP can be trusted on the switch port, and the AP can then mark the packets with the appropriate DSCP value, which will be retained across the network. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

 For a BYOD setup using a dual SSID approach, the first SSID is typically used for device registration and the second for network access. Setting the NAC State to Radius NAC enables the network access control (NAC) to use RADIUS for authentication, authorization, and accounting. Allowing AAA Override enables the RADIUS server to dynamically change the VLAN and ACLs assigned to the endpoint, which is crucial for BYOD where devices need to be placed into the correct VLAN based on user role and device type. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, particularly the chapters on BYOD and advanced WLAN configuration.

To route wireless traffic from the branch through the firewall at corporate headquarters, the correct Cisco FlexConnect configuration is central authentication and central switching. This setup ensures that both user authentication and data traffic are handled centrally at the corporate headquarters, allowing the firewall to inspect and route the traffic accordingly. Local RADIUS servers in each branch can still be used for redundancy or other purposes, but the central control of traffic is maintained. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

 To provide guests access using social media authentication, the engineer must configure the “Social Connect” service. This service allows guests to use their Facebook credentials, among other social media platforms, to authenticate and gain network access. It simplifies the guest access process by leveraging existing social media accounts for authentication. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

To ensure that only admins have access to network device management while allowing guest users to reach the web portal, access to Cisco ISE must be permitted on the pre-authentication ACL. This configuration allows guests to interact with the portal without granting them broader network access.

In a dual SSID design for BYOD, one SSID is used for provisioning devices, and the other is for network access. It’s important not to enforce an ACL to switch SSIDs after provisioning because this could disrupt the user experience. Instead, the process should be seamless, with the device automatically connecting to the access SSID after provisioning is complete. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

The bronze QoS level is typically recommended for guest services in a wireless network environment. This level prioritizes basic internet access, which is suitable for guest services that do not require high bandwidth or low latency. It ensures that more critical services are not impacted by guest traffic, which is often less sensitive to performance fluctuations. References := CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus) is recommended for managing device access as it provides a more granular level of control over user authentication and authorization than RADIUS. It allows for different levels of access based on user identity by interfacing with external repositories such as Active Directory or LDAP. This protocol helps in distinguishing between different users and assigning appropriate access rights based on their roles within an organization. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

The ‘aaa session-id common’ command is essential when implementing Cisco Identity Based Networking Services (IBNS) with downloadable ACLs on a Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switch. This command configures the switch to use a common session identifier for all AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) transactions. This is important for downloadable ACLs because it ensures that the correct policies are applied consistently across different sessions and services.

In Cisco ISE version 2.1 for BYOD with a Single SSID setup, 802.1x must be configured to provide the necessary layer of security and to facilitate the device registration process. 802.1x authentication allows for the use of EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) to authenticate users before they can access the network. This ensures that only authorized devices can join the BYOD network, providing a secure method for device onboarding and access control. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

To ensure end-to-end QoS and preserve markings correctly in the VoWLAN setup, the configurations needed on the wired network are trust boundaries and policy maps. Trust boundaries define where the network trusts the QoS markings on packets, and policy maps are used to enforce QoS policies on the network. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

 The issue described indicates that the Angle of Arrival (AoA) data is not being transmitted between the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) and the virtual CMX server. To resolve this, the network administrator must ensure that port 2003 is allowed for AoA packets to flow through between the CMX appliances, which is necessary for Hyperlocation data transmission. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

Local EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) allows wireless LAN controllers to directly authenticate clients using an internal database, which can be useful when external RADIUS servers are unreachable. By enabling local EAP, client devices can still connect to wireless networks even if communication with RADIUS servers fails, ensuring continuous network access for users. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

To segregate iOS-connected devices onto a guest SSID on VLAN 101 and the rest of the clients on VLAN 102, specific configurations are needed on the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Wireless LAN Controller (WLC). The correct configurations required are:

Add local profiling policy under global security policy settings (Option B): This allows the WLC to profile devices based on their operating system. By identifying iOS devices, a local profiling policy can then direct these devices to the appropriate VLAN.

Enable device classification on global wireless settings (Option E): Device classification is necessary for the WLC to differentiate between device types. Once enabled, it can apply different policies based on whether a device is recognized as an iOS device or not.

When upgrading a Cisco AireOS WLC from version 7.3 to 8.9, it’s crucial to configure ACLs that allow necessary traffic for Cisco Central Web Authentication (CWA). The correct ACLs to configure are:

B. Permit 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 UDP DNS any: This ACL allows DNS queries from any source to any destination, which is essential for resolving domain names during the upgrade process.

E. Permit 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 UDP any any: This ACL permits all UDP traffic from any source to any destination, ensuring that services relying on UDP can continue to function during the upgrade.

These ACLs ensure that critical services like DNS resolution are not interrupted during the upgrade process, which could otherwise lead to system instability or failure to access network resources. References := ( CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide )

Trusting DSCP is essential for maintaining the QoS markings across the wired and wireless network in a FlexConnect deployment. By trusting DSCP, the WLC and APs will preserve the QoS markings set by applications and devices, ensuring consistent QoS treatment throughout the network. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

Enabling unicast AP multicast mode can correct the issue of increased controller CPU overhead and overall network utilization after multicast is enabled. This mode allows the controller to send multicast traffic to the APs as unicast, which is more efficient for the wireless medium and reduces the load on the controller’s CPU.

 The configuration for the Rogue Rule named “Rule 1” is set to classify an access point (AP) as malicious if it meets certain conditions. The rule specifies that the AP must have a Minimum RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) of less than or equal to -65 dBm and must have been seen for a Time Duration greater than or equal to 3600 seconds. Among the options provided, both A and C have been seen for more than 3600 seconds, which satisfies the Time Duration condition. However, for the RSSI condition, only option C with an RSSI of -60 dBm meets the criteria of being less than or equal to -65 dBm. Therefore, option C is the correct answer, as it fulfills both conditions set by the Rogue Rule.

The Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) is used to securely issue certificates to network devices in a scalable manner. When provisioning certificates on a Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller using a third-party CA server, SCEP is the protocol that facilitates this process. It allows the controller to request and install certificates automatically, which is essential for establishing secure communications within the network. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

To segregate all iPads on the guest WLAN to a separate VLAN without using Cisco ISE, the engineer can create a local policy on the WLC (option A). This local policy can be configured to identify iPad devices and assign them to a specific VLAN based on their device profile or other identifying characteristics. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, especially the sections that cover local policies and device profiling on the WLC.

The issue described indicates a problem with the 802.1X authentication policy on the authenticator, which is typically the wireless controller or access point. Even though the CA certificate is correctly installed on the laptop, if the authenticator’s policy is incorrectly configured or does not match the required settings for the corporate network, the user’s authentication attempts will fail. It is essential to review and correct the 802.1X policy settings on the authenticator to resolve this issue. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

In a FlexConnect deployment, enabling FlexConnect Local Switching allows branch office APs to map client traffic directly onto the local LAN, bypassing the need to tunnel all traffic back to the WLC at the main campus. This is essential for corporate devices at branch offices to access local resources efficiently and to be mapped to the correct VLANs according to their VLAN tag ID and WLAN. This setting is not relevant for APs in Local mode at the main campus, as they already switch traffic locally by default.

The feature that must be enabled to ignore non-802.11 interference is “Avoid Persistent Non-WiFi Interference.” This setting allows the Radio Resource Management (RRM) to not react to non-802.11 noise and interference, which can be crucial in environments where such interference is common but does not significantly impact wireless performance. By enabling this feature, RRM will not change the channel in response to non-IEEE 802.11 interferers, thus maintaining a stable channel plan. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

 Link-Local Service (LSS) filtering for mDNS (Multicast Domain Name System) is used to control the propagation of mDNS services across the network. To enable LSS for the AppleTV mDNS service only when ORIGIN is set to Wired, the correct action is to set ORIGIN to Wired and enable LSS specifically for the AppleTV service. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

When setting up a new Network Access Device (NAD) on Cisco ISE, it is essential to configure the device’s IP address and the RADIUS shared secret. The device IP address is used to identify the NAD within the network, and the RADIUS shared secret is a password used between the ISE and the NAD to ensure secure communication.

When planning an image upgrade for a large number of Access Points (APs) across remote sites with limited WAN bandwidth, it’s crucial to minimize WAN utilization. The best approach in this scenario is:

Predownload the new code to the APs (Option A): This method involves sending the new firmware image to all APs before actually rebooting them with the new image. It allows APs to download firmware when network usage is low, thus minimizing impact during peak hours.
