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

 When configuring an autonomous Access Point (AP) for 802.1x authentication using an external authentication server like RADIUS, it’s essential that AP knows where to send authentication requests and has a secure method of communicating with it. The RADIUS server’s IP address must be configured on AP so it knows where to forward user credentials for verification. Additionally, a shared secret must be set up between AP and RADIUS server as part of their secure communication protocol; without this shared secret, they cannot trust each other’s communications. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

For new Access Points (APs) in a Cisco FlexConnect deployment, switch ports should be configured in trunk mode. This allows the APs to handle traffic for multiple WLANs or SSIDs, each associated with different VLANs. Trunk mode enables the AP to tag traffic with the correct VLAN IDs as per its configuration. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

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)

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.

When a wireless controller is configured to authenticate clients against Microsoft Active Directory using PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol), it uses RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) as the protocol to communicate with the authentication server. RADIUS is a networking protocol that provides centralized Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) management for users who connect and use a network service.

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.

To offer indoor directions to patient rooms using the existing wireless infrastructure, the hospital would need to install Cisco MSE (B) and Cisco CMX Visitor Connect ©. Cisco Mobility Services Engine (MSE) provides advanced location services, including tracking for Wi-Fi clients, which is essential for indoor navigation. Cisco CMX Visitor Connect, part of the Cisco Connected Mobile Experiences (CMX) solutions, allows for the customization of visitor experiences, such as indoor navigation. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

Mobile Device Management (MDM) integration with Cisco ISE increases security for lost devices by providing functions such as data wipe and jailbreak/root detection. Data wipe allows the remote erasure of sensitive information from lost devices, preventing unauthorized access. Jailbreak/root detection helps identify compromised devices that may bypass standard security measures, ensuring that they do not access network resources.

 The correct configuration for limiting Internet bandwidth for each guest client on a Cisco Catalyst 9800 WLC is through a policy map. A policy map allows the creation of policies that can manage traffic within a network. By setting a bandwidth limit within the policy map, the WLC can enforce the required QoS for guest clients. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

For location analytics in a shopping center using AireOS controllers with Cisco Wave 2 APs, the CMX server settings must exclude probing clients to track only associated clients. This setting ensures that the location analytics data reflects the movements of clients that are actively connected to the WLAN, providing accurate insights into popular areas within the shopping center. 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

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

The Voice VLAN feature on switches allows the network to distinguish between voice traffic and data traffic from wireless clients connected to IP phones. This is crucial for applying the appropriate QoS to ensure that voice traffic is prioritized over client data traffic. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

 To adjust the precedence and override the QoS profile on the WLAN for WebEx, an Application Visibility and Control (AVC) profile needs to be created for WebEx. AVC profiles allow for the identification and prioritization of specific applications over the wireless network, ensuring that critical applications like WebEx receive the necessary bandwidth and QoS treatment. References := CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

To integrate the Mobility Services Engine (MSE) with Cisco Prime Infrastructure for tracking the location of clients and rogues on maps, it is essential to add the MSE to Cisco Prime Infrastructure using the communication credentials specific to Cisco Prime Infrastructure. This ensures that both systems can communicate effectively. Additionally, a valid license for location tracking must be applied to enable the MSE’s location services capabilities. Without this license, the MSE would not be able to provide client and rogue location tracking functionalities. 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 feature required on the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller to support dynamic VLAN mapping is AAA override. This feature allows for the assignment of VLANs on a per-user basis as determined by the authentication, authorization, and accounting server. When AAA override is enabled, attributes such as VLAN ID can be dynamically applied to a user’s session after successful authentication and authorization. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

 EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Transport Layer Security) is an EAP method that an Access Point (AP) can use to authenticate to the wired network. EAP-TLS is considered one of the most secure EAP methods because it uses mutual authentication, where both the client and the server authenticate each other using certificates.

 To ensure the 1810 OEAP can join the controller from remote teleworker locations, the firewall must allow specific UDP ports that are used for AP communication with the controller. UDP ports 5246 and 5247 are used for Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) control and data messages, while UDP ports 12222 and 12223 are used for OfficeExtend APs’ data traffic. Blocking these ports would prevent the APs from joining the controller, hence they must be allowed on the firewall.

The issue described in the scenario occurs because when creating an Access Control List (ACL) to be used for managing traffic to the Wireless LAN Controller’s (WLC) CPU, it must be explicitly defined as a CPU ACL. If this specification is not made during the creation process, the ACL will not appear in the drop-down list when enabling the CPU ACL function. This is necessary because CPU ACLs are used to protect the WLC against potential Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks by filtering incoming packets directed at the management interface before they are processed by the CPU. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

Before deploying an OEAP successfully, the IT administrator must configure the AP mode to FlexConnect and check the box for Office Extend AP ©, and configure the Primary Controller Name and Management IP address in the High Availability tab (E). These settings ensure that the OEAP can establish a connection to the WLC and function correctly in a remote user’s home. 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.

When an MSE with wIPS service is installed, it is crucial for alarm information to reach the MSE from the controllers. The Network Mobility Services Protocol (NMSP) is the protocol that facilitates this communication. Ensuring that NMSP is allowed through any firewalls or network security devices is essential for the proper functioning of the wIPS service. References := ( CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide )

The default NMSP echo interval between Cisco MSE and a Wireless LAN Controller is 15 seconds. This interval determines how frequently the MSE sends echo messages to the WLC to maintain the NMSP connection and ensure that the link is active and operational. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

 FlexConnect is a wireless solution for branch office and remote office deployments. It allows APs to switch client data traffic locally and perform client authentication locally when they are disconnected from the WLC. For WLAN A to work in FlexConnect mode and WLAN B to work in local mode, the APs need to be part of a FlexConnect group with proper WLAN-VLAN mappings. This ensures that the correct VLAN is used for each WLAN, which is essential when the APs are operating in FlexConnect mode. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

When implementing Cisco Identity-Based Networking on a Cisco AireOS controller with two ACLs where one is applied directly on the WLC interface and another referenced by ISE for a specific group policy, the resulting ACL for a user in that group would be a combination of both ACLs. The BASE_ACL applied on the corporate_clients interface acts as the default ACL for all corporate clients, while HR_ACL is specific for Human Resources users. When a Human Resources user connects, HR_ACL takes precedence but does not replace BASE_ACL; instead, it appends its rules to those of BASE_ACL resulting in an aggregated set of rules from both ACLs. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

To ensure reliable streaming of multicast video over a wireless link, it’s essential to optimize the multicast settings on the controller. Option B, implementing video-stream for the multicast video on the controller, is a feature that optimizes the delivery of multicast streams by converting them into unicast streams for specific clients, thus improving reliability. Option C, allowing multicast-direct to work correctly, involves enabling multicast-direct globally, which allows multicast packets to be sent directly to clients without the need for them to subscribe to a specific multicast group, enhancing efficiency and reliability. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

The issue with duplicate client entries from iOS clients with the private MAC address feature enabled can be resolved by breaking the high availability using the cmxha config disable command and upgrading the primary and secondary individually. This approach allows for each appliance to be upgraded without affecting the high availability pair’s synchronization and operation. References: The solution is supported by best practices for upgrading Cisco appliances in a high availability configuration, as outlined in the CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

 When configuring Cisco OfficeExtend Access Points (OEAPs), enabling NAT IP only for office-extend is necessary if the APs are behind a NAT device and need to communicate with the Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) using the internal IP management address. The command config flexconnect office-extend nat-ip-only enable allows the APs to discover and associate with the WLC when the management interface is configured with a NAT address.

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.

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 )

For guests to reach a Web Authentication Redirect page while blocking web management traffic to the controller, guest client HTTPS traffic must be allowed to a specific IP address that does not interfere with management access. The virtual interface IP on a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller serves as a DHCP relay and is used for web authentication processes. Therefore, allowing HTTPS traffic to this IP enables guests to reach the redirect page without granting them access to manage the controller. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

When setting up identity-based networking with ISE and configuring AAA override on the WLAN, the attributes that can be used to change the client behavior from the default settings include the DNS server and DSCP value. The DNS server attribute allows for the specification of a DNS server per client, which can be essential for directing traffic through specific network paths or applying policies based on domain name resolutions. The DSCP value attribute is used to mark the packets with a specific Quality of Service (QoS) level, which can prioritize or deprioritize traffic as needed. References := ( CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide )

To establish connectivity between a Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) and Cisco’s Connected Mobile Experiences (CMX) through Network Mobility Services Protocol (NMSP), it is essential to enable NMSP on the WLC, which facilitates communication with location-based services like CMX. Additionally, for secure communication, it is necessary to add the MAC address of the Cisco CMX server to the WLC along with its SSC (Self-Signed Certificate) key, ensuring that both devices can authenticate each other and establish a trusted connection. 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)

 In a Cisco WLAN deployment where it is required that all APs from branch1 remain operational even if the control plane CAPWAP tunnel is down, the operational mode that must be configured on the APs is standalone (option B). In standalone mode, the APs can continue to function and provide network access to clients even without a connection to the WLC, which is essential during a WAN failure to headquarters. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, with a focus on AP operational modes and their behavior during network disruptions.

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)

The Cisco Hyperlocation feature requires enabling on both the wireless LAN controller and Cisco CMX to function correctly. This allows for precise location tracking by integrating data from both components. Additionally, if the Cisco CMX server is a virtual machine (VM), it is recommended to use a high-end VM to handle the processing demands of Cisco Hyperlocation deployments, ensuring optimal performance and accuracy.

The Cisco Aironet 1800s Active Sensor is designed to work with Cisco DNA Center. It is a compact, flexible sensor that provides insights into the wireless network’s health and is used for proactive monitoring and troubleshooting. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide, which includes information on Cisco DNA Center and compatible AP models.

In this scenario where branch wireless users can still associate locally but cannot access head office services due to WAN downtime indicates that Cisco FlexConnect is likely in use. The correct elements are: A - authentication-local/switch-local: This means that client authentication and data switching are happening locally at the branch. E - standalone mode: With WAN down, FlexConnect APs operate in standalone mode allowing clients to associate even without connectivity back to WLC. F - WEB authentication: This could be used as an authentication method regardless of WAN state since it’s processed locally at AP level. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

 The benefit of using dual SSIDs with a captive portal on the onboard SSID compared to a single SSID solution is the ability to restrict allowed device types. With a dual SSID setup, one SSID can be used for onboarding new devices with a captive portal that can enforce policies and check the device type before allowing access to the main SSID. This helps in maintaining a secure and compliant network environment. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

The FlexConnect AP Upgrade feature allows for a selective upgrade process within a FlexConnect group. By not setting any master APs, the WLC will automatically select one AP of each model with the lowest MAC address to receive the upgrade directly from the controller. This ensures that the upgrade is distributed efficiently across different AP models in the group without manual intervention.

 LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a protocol used for accessing and maintaining distributed directory information services over an IP network. In the context of Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine), LDAP can be utilized as a directory service to authenticate and authorize users during local web authentication processes. LDAP supports a wide range of directory services, including Microsoft Active Directory, which is commonly used in enterprise environments.

The maximum time range that can be viewed on the Cisco DNA Center issues and alarms page is 24 hours. This allows network administrators to monitor and troubleshoot recent issues and alarms within a one-day period. References := (CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide)

 For a startup company without LDAP, using the internal database of the RADIUS server is a viable solution to authenticate wireless users. This approach allows the company to maintain a directory of users within the RADIUS server itself, providing similar security and user experience as LDAP would. Users can be authenticated against this internal database, ensuring secure access to the wireless network. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

For RADIUS to restrict administrative control effectively, the engineer needs to define a Network Access Server (NAS) entry that corresponds to the WLC’s management IP address and the AP subnet. The correct entry would be the NAS IP of the virtual interface (typically used for RADIUS communications) and the specific network range of the AP subnet, which is 192.168.2.0 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. References: CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

The command cmxha convert backup is used on the backup Cisco CMX server to designate it as the secondary server in a high-availability deployment. This command helps to resolve the issue where both servers are considered primary. References: Cisco CMX high-availability documentation will provide more details on this command.

In Quality of Service (QoS) for networking, Class of Service (COS) and Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) are used for traffic classification and prioritization. Voice traffic is generally given high priority due to its sensitivity to delay and requires proper tagging to maintain quality over the network.

The correct mapping for voice traffic, according to best practices, is a COS value of 5 mapped to a DSCP value of 46. This is because DSCP 46 corresponds to Expedited Forwarding (EF), which is typically used for voice traffic prioritization in IP networks.

The exhibit shows the output from a command on a network device that displays the current mappings between COS values and DSCP values. The mapping that needs modification for correct voice traffic tagging can be identified by looking at the standard practice for voice QoS, which uses a COS value of 5 mapped to a DSCP value of 46.

 The two protocols used to communicate between the Cisco Mobility Services Engine (MSE) and the Cisco Prime Infrastructure network management software are HTTPS and NMSP (Network Mobility Services Protocol). HTTPS is used for secure web-based communications, while NMSP is a Cisco proprietary protocol used specifically for efficient, real-time communication between MSE and network management software like Cisco Prime Infrastructure. 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)

The Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend APs support various Layer 2 security options, including WPA+WPA2 and 802.1X. WPA and WPA2 provide secure encryption for wireless data, while 802.1X offers a robust authentication framework. These security options ensure that the wireless network is protected against unauthorized access and data breaches, which is crucial for remote workers connecting to the corporate network. References := CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide

During the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) process, the RADIUS server generates an encrypted session key after the client’s identity is authenticated. This session key is sent to the access point to encrypt data frames between the client and the access point. It ensures that each session has a unique encryption key, enhancing security. References: Look for information on EAP and RADIUS in the CCNP Enterprise Wireless Design ENWLSD 300-425 and Implementation ENWLSI 300-430 Official Cert Guide.

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

 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
