Question 730
After a change at an airport terminal, the original incident was: An AP's second Ethernet port is configured for WLAN breakout but connects to the same unrestricted network as its management link. Which evidence BEST verifies that the specific failure has been corrected?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Guest traffic follows the intended isolated Eth1 path and management remains on the approved interface. This directly checks the outcome of the chosen remediation and confirms the problem was not merely hidden. The diagnostic issue was: alternate local breakout ports require a deliberate physical and VLAN forwarding design.
Incorrect Answers
The AP reconnects and reports the expected applied WLAN configuration and client behavior. This would demonstrate a different scenario was fixed—an organization change is approved but the affected AP has been offline for days and still uses an old WLAN policy—but does not validate recovery from an AP's second Ethernet port is configured for WLAN breakout but connects to the same unrestricted network as its management link.
The AP obtains management connectivity and user VLANs remain correctly separated. This would demonstrate a different scenario was fixed—a wireless AP is installed on a trunk that erroneously presents the management VLAN tagged instead of the required local native VLAN—but does not validate recovery from an AP's second Ethernet port is configured for WLAN breakout but connects to the same unrestricted network as its management link.
Both Ethernet ends negotiate a supported higher speed and uplink congestion decreases. This would demonstrate a different scenario was fixed—an AP uplink works at 100 Mbps even though its model and switch support multi-gigabit speed, producing throughput bottlenecks—but does not validate recovery from an AP's second Ethernet port is configured for WLAN breakout but connects to the same unrestricted network as its management link.
