WLAN

You are configuring an SSID that uses 802.1X as its security mechanism.

What must be considered when deploying Wi‑Fi 6E (6 GHz) while retaining compatibility with Wi‑Fi 6 (5 GHz) networks?

  • A WPA3-Enterprise (CNSA) is mandatory
  • B WPA3-Enterprise (CCM-128) is mandatory
  • C WPA2-Enterprise is mandatory
  • D WPA3-Enterprise (GCM-256) is mandatory
Explanation

Wi‑Fi 6E requires WPA3 for 6 GHz operation, and WPA2 is not supported in that band. For an 802.1X enterprise deployment, WPA3‑Enterprise with AES-CCMP-128 provides the required baseline and maintains broad compatibility. The 192-bit CNSA-aligned WPA3‑Enterprise mode using GCMP-256 is optional, not required.
