Cisco Implementing Cisco Unified Wireless Voice Networks (IUWVN) v2.0 Sample Questions:
A client reports that video is not streaming. The administrator determines the client is connecting at a data rate of 12 Mbps and is trying to stream to a valid multicast address on the network. What three items should the administrator check next to troubleshoot the issue? (Choose three.)
- A. SSID has been set for a QoS value of Gold.
- B. SSID has been set for a QoS value of Platinum.
- C. IGMP snooping is turned off because the client cannot request to join a group, only access points can.
- D. Video-stream for the multicast video is configured in the controller.
- E. SSID has been configured to allow multicast-direct and multicast-direct has been enabled globally.
- F. RTSP is used to stream the video due to wireless multicast not using acknowledgements.
What three changes occur when you replace a legacy 802.11a/b/g Cisco AP with an 802.11a/b/g/n Cisco 3500 Series AP? (Choose three.)
- A. benefits in 5 GHz only
- B. increased data rate at same distance
- C. benefits in 2.4 GHz only
- D. increased data rate at increased distance
- E. increased data rate at reduced distance
- F. benefits in both 2.4 and 5 GHz
A support technician is reviewing wireless configurations for a voice network. They notice the off channel scan defer has been set for 4, 5, and 6. What would occur if the technician was to deselect 5 and 6?
- A. The access points would only go off channel to scan if there were devices transmitting with a UP of 4.
- B. Cameras transmitting with a UP of 4 will cause the access point to go off channel to scan.
- C. The access points would go off channel to scan whether there were voice devices transmitting or not.
- D. Wireless clients transmitting at a UP of 5 will cause the access point to cease going off channel to scan.
The AP has been properly configured for a VoWLAN survey. The RF environment contains a noise of -87 to -90 dBm. What would be the target value for the cell edge reading?
- A. -73 dBm
- B. -62 dBm
- C. -60 dBm
- D. -55 dBm
- E. -70 dBm
- F. -67 dBm
Refer to the exhibit.
Which three statements describe the WLC configuration? (Choose three.)
- A. It applies to platinum and gold QoS.
- B. It enables TSPEC, given other appropriate configurations.
- C. It enables QBSS, given other appropriate configurations.
- D. It applies to platinum QoS.
- E. CAC values are relatively high.
- F. CAC values are relatively low.
