QuestionQ51

Wireless Monitoring and Management

An engineer must troubleshoot complex wireless performance problems in a large office that uses a Cisco 9176 AP. The engineer must analyze traffic patterns and identify possible sources of interference. The AP must capture all wireless frames in the air and forward them to a remote protocol analyzer for detailed inspection. Client connectivity from the AP is not required during the troubleshooting window.

Which CLI command must the engineer use on the WLC to enable the required AP mode for this purpose?

  • A ap name office1st mode monitor
  • B ap name office1st mode sniffer
  • C ap name office1st mode local
  • D ap name office1st mode rogue-detector
Explanation

Cisco sniffer mode dedicates an AP to capturing over-the-air wireless traffic and forwarding the captured packets to a remote packet analyzer. Cisco documents the configuration command as ap name <ap-name> mode sniffer; an AP in this role does not provide normal wireless client service.
