300-425 Exam Dumps - Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSD)

 Cisco Hyperlocation requires a dense deployment of access points for accurate location tracking. Adding more APs than a standard site survey suggests can meet the granular location requirements needed for Hyperlocation services. References: ENWLSD official certification guide.

Mobility domains and mobility groups are concepts used in Cisco wireless networking to manage client roaming and controller interaction. When Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) are part of the same mobility domain, they share a common database, allowing them to communicate and facilitate seamless client roaming. A mobility group is a subset of this domain, where specific WLCs work together more closely to share client context and security credentials. This ensures that when a client roams from one access point (AP) to another across different controllers, the authentication and security context are maintained, allowing for a seamless transition without the need to re-authenticate. The mobility group also manages AP fail-over between controllers, ensuring clients can maintain their connections even if their current AP fails or becomes unreachable.

To address the sticky client problem, setting an RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) threshold can help. This configuration will prompt clients to roam to a better AP when their signal strength falls below the set threshold, thus enhancing the roaming experience and ensuring clients are connected to the AP with the strongest signal available.

The Voice Readiness tool within Cisco Prime Infrastructure is designed to assess the wireless network’s ability to support voice services, including VoIP. It evaluates various factors such as signal strength, noise levels, and coverage to ensure that the wireless network can handle the quality of service requirements needed for voice communications.

When conducting site surveys for WLAN upgrades to 802.11n, it’s important to consider AP locations that allow for easy access. This facilitates quick maintenance and upgrades, ensuring minimal downtime and disruption to the network. While aesthetics and power availability are also considerations, the primary focus should be on maintaining the network’s performance and reliability.

 To ensure that the most critical APs at remote sites remain functional in the event of a failure, the Global AP Failover Priority feature can be used. By setting the priority of the most important APs to “critical”, these APs will be given precedence over others during a failover scenario. This allows the engineer to prioritize which APs should remain online without impacting the main site’s APs, which are set to a “high” priority.
