Network Access

An engineer is installing a new wireless printer that uses a static IP address on the Wi‑Fi network. Which feature must be enabled and configured to avoid connection problems with the printer?

  • A client exclusion
  • B DHCP address assignment
  • C passive client
  • D static IP tunneling
Explanation

The required feature is passive client, which is specifically intended for wireless devices that use static IP addressing instead of DHCP. It allows the wireless infrastructure to learn and maintain the client’s IP-to-MAC information even when the device does not send DHCP requests, preventing reachability and connectivity issues that commonly affect statically addressed wireless printers and similar devices.
