Which two statements about a service set identifier (SSID) are true? (Choose
two.)
tells a wireless device to which WLAN it belongs
consists of a 32-character string and is not case sensitive
responsible for determining the signal strength
all wireless devices on the same WLAN must have the same SSID
used to encrypt data sent across the wireless network
What are two authentication methods that an access point could use? (Choose two.)
WEP
WPA
EAP
ASCII
pre-shared keys
What is the difference between using open authentication and pre-shared keys?
Open authentication requires a password. Pre-shared keys do not require a
password.
Open authentication is used with wireless networks. Pre-shared keys are used with
wired networks.
Pre-shared keys require an encrypted secret word. Open authentication does not
require a secret word.
Pre-shared keys require a MAC address programmed into the access point. Open
authentication does not require this programming.
