Exam 350-401 topic 1 question 188 discussion

The given answer is correct

The correct answer is: B. 802.1X C. OPEN

Leaving it OPEN is not a security feature....

A & B are correct WPA2 is supported on wifi 6, but it´s not supported on wifi 6E! this is from cisco: WPA3 is AVAILABLE in Wi-Fi 6 and is MANDATORY for Wi-Fi 6E, they dosen´t say WPA2 is not supoorted on wifi 6, if WPA3 is optional on wifi 6 then WPA2 is suppoerted. C is a good feature for wifi 6E https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/wireless/what-is-wi-fi-6.html#~elements:~:text=(WPA3)%20is%20available%20in%20Wi%2DFi%206%20and%20is%20mandatory%20for%20Wi%2DFi%206E. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/wireless/what-is-wifi-6-vs-wifi-6e.html#~benefits:~:text=Wi%2DFi%206E%20benefits,in%20Wi%2DFi%206E.

I see the debate is between AB and BC combos. My question about BC is: how can you you have both Open Authentication and 802.1X authentication on the same WLAN? I understand about using Open authentication with a security suite such as WPA2/WPA3, but how would OPEN + 802.1X work?

Its AB lol

802.1x without a doubt is an answer. Regarding the A/C Debate, you would not secure a wifi 6 environment with WPA2, and it is a trusted employee WLAN. I currently do this where I am eployed now and the trusted OPEN Network with 802.1x allows for enhanced security.

yeah , they are right WPA2 is not supported so B & C https://www.extremenetworks.com/resources/blogs/wireless-security-in-a-6-ghz-wi-fi-6e-world#:~:text=The%20Wi%2DFi%20Alliance%20requires,(OWE)%20in%206%20GHz.

The correct answer is B and C ( 802.1X and Open) !

WPA 2 is supported on WiFi 6. It is not supported on WiFi6E (on 6GHz band; it is supposed to be "legacy free")

B and C

WPA2 is not supported on WI-FI6, and WEP is out of the discussion, so the correct answers are 802.1x and OPEN.

B&C WPA2 is not supported on wifi6

Is this about wifi 6E? Do they mean OWE or Open SSID? Anyway, WPA2 seems to be out of support on wifi 6/6E. 802.1x and Open (OWE?) seem to be working. Could someone check this please? A couple of good sources: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/nb-06-preparing-for-wifi-6-ebook-cte-en.html "WPA3 is a mandatory requirement for the Wi-Fi 6E network" https://blogs.cisco.com/networking/wlan-ssid-security-migration-into-6ghz-networks "any new device supporting 6GHz, will be required to “only” support the following security standards while in the new band: WPA3..., OWE..., SAE..." https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/wireless/what-is-wifi-6-vs-wifi-6e.html#~benefits "Wi-Fi Protected Access 3 (WPA3) mandatory for all Wi-Fi 6E devices, without backward compatibility for WPA2"

Similar question on older exam when referring ro 802.11ac - the answer was OPEN: https://www.examtopics.com/discussions/cisco/view/5831-exam-200-355-topic-1-question-36-discussion/

When Cisco is describing Wi-fi 6, they state this about OPEN: Wifi6…It offers enhanced security for open Wi-Fi networks with encryption of unauthenticated traffic, robust password protection against brute-force dictionary attacks, and superior data reliability for sensitive information with 192-bit encryption. Also, they state this about 802.1X, in the context of wifi6: Cisco Network Essentials and Network Advantage licenses enable wireless fundamentals such as 802.1X authentication, QoS, Plug and Play (PnP), telemetry and visibility, Single Sign-On (SSO), and security controls. These licenses are perpetual. Source: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/wireless/nb-06-preparing-for-wifi-6-ebook-cte-en.html

I think the question is confusing.. They want you to use .1x (instead of a PSK) with! wpa2. Open is not a standard that is discussed
