CWNP Certified Wireless Analysis Professional Sample Questions:

1. HOTSPOT
A manager at a retail outlet has complained that an incident occurred allowing a STA to launch an attack against another STA connected to their public Wi-Fi hotspot. He has asked you to troubleshoot the situation and verify that all possible measured are being taken to prevent this.
What configuration should you check in the AP?

2. You have been asked to recommend a solution for protocol capture of 802.11 frames consisting of 3x3:3 802.11ac communications. The requirement specifies that you gain a general view of a coverage area and does not require that you capture from specific user locations. The solution must be the least expensive practical solution possible that does not disrupt user access to the WLAN and it must be based on enterprise WLAN hardware.
What solution would you recommend so that any coverage area could be monitored on demand?

A) Install sufficient Aps so that an AP can be taken offline to perform protocol analysis as needed
B) Install Wireshark on the Aps natively to allow dynamic capture while serving clients
C) Install the minimum number of Aps required for coverage and use these Aps for protocol analysis as needed
D) Install laptop-based protocol analyzer near each AP

3. Recently, three rogue APs have been connected to the network and later discovered. You want to prevent future rogue AP installations as much as possible.
What is the first step to eliminating or reducing rogue APs on the network?

A) Define a direct policy that stipulates the ramifications of installing unauthorized devices
B) Enable rogue detection in the existing authorized APs
C) Use IPSec between every AP and the network infrastructure
D) Create a hash of the MAC addresses of all authorized devices and continually scan for non-matching hashes

4. You are using a Wireless Aggregator utility to combine multiple packet captures. One capture exists for each of channels 1, 6 and 11.
What kind of troubleshooting are you likely performing with such a tool?

A) Wireless adapter failure analysis.
B) Fast secure roaming problems.
C) Interference source location.
D) Narrowband DoS attack detection.

5. You suspect an interfere may exist in a BSS that is experiencing sporadic problems. You want to identify and locate the device. The actual device identify is not known.
What tool should be used for this purpose?

A) Throughput tester
B) Protocol analyzer
C) Spectrum analyzer
D) Cable tester
