Question 119 - CWNA-109 discussion

Report
Export

You support a WLAN using dual-band 802.11ac three stream access points. All access points have both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios enabled and use 40 MHz channels in 5 GHz and 20 MHz channels in 2.4 GHz. A manager is concerned about the fact that each access point is connected using a 1 Gbps Ethernet link. He is concerned that the Ethernet link will not be able to handle the load from the wireless radios. What do you tell him?

A.
His concern is valid and the company should upgrade all Ethernet links to 10 Gbps immediately.
Answers
A.
His concern is valid and the company should upgrade all Ethernet links to 10 Gbps immediately.
B.
His concern is valid and the company should immediately plan to run a second 1 Gbps Ethernet link to each AP.

C.
His concern is invalid because the AP will compress all data before transmitting it onto the Ethernet link.

D.
Due to 802.11 network operations and the dynamic rates used by devices on the network, the two radios will likely not exceed the 1 Gpbs Ethernet link.

Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

What you should tell him is thatdue to 802.11 network operations and the dynamic rates used by devices on the network, the two radios will likely not exceed the 1 Gbps Ethernet link. This is because the actual throughput of an 802.11 network is much lower than the theoretical data rates due to factors such as overhead, contention, interference, retransmissions, and environmental conditions. Moreover, the data rates used by devices on the network vary depending on their distance, signal quality, capabilities, and configuration. Therefore, it is unlikely that both radios of the AP will simultaneously use the maximum data rates and saturate the 1 Gbps Ethernet link. Upgrading to a 10 Gbps Ethernet link or running a second 1 Gbps Ethernet link may be unnecessary and costly. Compressing all data before transmitting it onto the Ethernet link may introduce additional overhead and latency.Reference:[CWNP Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 227; [CWNA: Certified Wireless Network Administrator Official Study Guide: Exam CWNA-109], page 217.
