Which wireless parameter is used by an access point to broadcast frames that include the SSID?
- passive mode
- active mode
- channel setting
- security mode
| Answers Explanation & Hints:
The two scanning or probing modes an access point can be placed into are passive or active. In passive mode, the AP advertises the SSID, supported standards, and security settings in broadcast beacon frames. In active mode, the wireless client must be manually configured for the same wireless parameters as the AP has configured. |
