Question Image

Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is using the Cisco WLC GUI to configure a WLAN with WPA2 encryption using AES and the preshared key Cisc0123456. After the engineer selects the WPA + WPA2 option from the Layer 2 Security drop-down list, which two tasks must be completed to finish the process?

Choose two
  • A Select CCKM from the Auth Key Mgmt drop-down list, set the PSK Format to Hex, and enter the key
  • B Select PSK from the Auth Key Mgmt drop-down list, set the PSK Format to ASCII, and enter the key.
  • C Select ASCII from the PSK Format drop-down list, enter the key, and leave the Auth Key Mgmt setting blank
  • D Select the WPA2 Policy and AES check boxes.
  • E Select the WPA2 Policy, AES, and TKIP check boxes
Explanation

WPA2-Personal with AES requires the WPA2 Policy and AES cipher to be enabled. It also requires PSK authentication; a text key such as Cisc0123456 is entered using ASCII PSK format. Cisco documentation specifies selecting WPA2 Policy-AES, then selecting PSK and choosing ASCII or HEX before entering the preshared key.
