Question 500
Following an incident at a university campus, the WLAN team documented this condition: A school expects Marvis Minis synthetic tests to validate every real mobile client path while the synthetic tests cover only one WLAN and VLAN. Which ongoing safeguard MOST directly prevents recurrence?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Document Marvis Minis test coverage and known gaps per WLAN service. This repeatable safeguard addresses the mechanism—synthetic traffic cannot prove the health of untested client, identity or network segments—and reduces the chance that the specific fault recurs.
Incorrect Answers
Track Marvis service subscription renewal dates for monitored sites. This protects against another issue—the wireless team cannot find Marvis Minis in the portal after its Marvis for Wireless subscription expired—but is not the most direct prevention for a school expects Marvis Minis synthetic tests to validate every real mobile client path while the synthetic tests cover only one WLAN and VLAN.
Audit AP firmware compliance before enabling site-wide synthetic tests. This protects against another issue—a Mist site has active APs but Marvis Minis runs no validation because one AP uses firmware below the required supported level—but is not the most direct prevention for a school expects Marvis Minis synthetic tests to validate every real mobile client path while the synthetic tests cover only one WLAN and VLAN.
Define action-specific automation eligibility, permission and rollback requirements. This protects against another issue—a technician sees a Marvis Action that can be self-remediated and assumes all action classes permit autonomous configuration without permissions or policy—but is not the most direct prevention for a school expects Marvis Minis synthetic tests to validate every real mobile client path while the synthetic tests cover only one WLAN and VLAN.
