JN0-451 Mist AI - Specialist (JNCIS-MistAI) Questions and Answers

According to the Wi-Fi configuration with Mist Systems | HCD Consulting GmbH document, three available rate limiting options in the Mist UI are:

the Post-Install user role is also known as Installer role, which has a minimum level of access to the org, sites, and APs. It can do the initial installation such as claim AP to Org, assign/unassign AP, or place on map, etc., but cannot unclaim or remove the AP from the Org. Site and AP access is allowed based on timed grace period and/or explicit site access.

Once a client discovers an access point, the correct order of steps for successful 802.1X authentication is Open System Authentication -> Association -> 802.1X Authentication. So the correct answer is D.Open System Authentication -> Association -> 802.1X Authentication.

According to the Wi-Fi - Radio Modulation - TutorialsPoint document1, 64 QAM is a modulation method that will result in the highest theoretical data rates among the given options. 64 QAM uses both phase and amplitude modulation to encode six bits of information into each transmitted symbol. It can achieve up to 54 Mbps in the 802.11a and g systems.

Syslog is a protocol that can be used to forward event messages from Mist to an external log collector.

According to the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller Software Configuration Guide1, syslog is a feature that enables forwarding event messages from Mist to an external log collector. Syslog messages can be sent over UDP or TCP protocols.

According to the Virtual Network Assistant | Juniper Networks US document2, Time to Connect is a Wireless Assurance SLE that has classifiers of Association, Authorization, DHCP, and Internet Services. This SLE measures how long it takes for a client device to connect to the network and access internet services.

According to Wikipedia1, 802.1X is an IEEE Standard for port-based network access control (PNAC). It provides an authentication mechanism to devices wishing to attach to a LAN or WLAN using Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over wired IEEE 802 networks and over 802.11 wireless networks, which is known as “EAP over LAN” or EAPOL.

The authentication process involves three parties: a supplicant (the client device), an authenticator (the network device such as an access point), and an authentication server (typically a RADIUS server). The supplicant must provide valid credentials to the authenticator before it can access the network resources.

The credentials are exchanged with a RADIUS server prior to the 4-way Handshake because the 4-way Handshake is used to establish encryption keys between the supplicant and authenticator after successful authentication2. The credentials are exchanged with a RADIUS server after the 802.11 Association because the 802.11 Association is used to establish a logical link between the supplicant and authenticator before authentication can take place3.

When a customer replaces their previous WLAN controller with a Mist Edge in order to maintain centralization of user traffic, control plane forwarding applies to the Mist Cloud while data plane forwarding applies to the Mist Edge. So the correct answer is A. Control plane forwarding applies to the Mist Cloud and data plane forwarding applies to the Mist Edge.
