Question 560
Following an incident at a stadium complex, the WLAN team documented this condition: A new site has all WLANs disabled yet operations expects Marvis Minis to perform active guest connectivity tests. Which ongoing safeguard MOST directly prevents recurrence?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Include active WLAN and synthetic enablement checks in site commissioning. This repeatable safeguard addresses the mechanism—minis needs a usable active service path and correct feature settings to perform validations—and reduces the chance that the specific fault recurs.
Incorrect Answers
Require problem-focused Marvis queries that reflect reported user experience. This protects against another issue—an operator asks Marvis why an AP is offline while the user complaint involves long DHCP delays with all APs online—but is not the most direct prevention for a new site has all WLANs disabled yet operations expects Marvis Minis to perform active guest connectivity tests.
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 new site has all WLANs disabled yet operations expects Marvis Minis to perform active guest connectivity tests.
Document Marvis Minis test coverage and known gaps per WLAN service. This protects against another issue—a school expects Marvis Minis synthetic tests to validate every real mobile client path while the synthetic tests cover only one WLAN and VLAN—but is not the most direct prevention for a new site has all WLANs disabled yet operations expects Marvis Minis to perform active guest connectivity tests.
