Cisco 350-101 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 121:

  A managed service is rolling out advanced wireless infrastructure to support an expanding organization with diverse device types. The implementation requires integration of dynamic endpoint profiling for secure access and device classification. According to the baseline deployment with ISE policy sets, the engineering group must enforce access parameters based on device category rules.

  Which configuration action must be taken to fulfill the initiative?

  A. Create device-type groups.
  B. Configure profiling groups.
  C. Implement user ID groups.
  D. Define endpoint group mapping.
  B. Configure profiling groups.

  ---

  Explanation

  The question is not asking for a generally related feature; it is asking about A managed service is rolling out advanced wireless infrastructure to support an expanding organization with diverse device types. The implementation requires integration of dynamic endpoint profiling for secure access and device classification. That makes Configure profiling groups. the relevant choice.

  This question is testing whether the requirement is matched to the feature that actually owns it. Many Cisco wireless terms are related, but only one usually changes the described behavior. This choice is preferred because it applies to the exact condition in the stem, while the remaining choices solve different operational or configuration problems.

  Create device-type groups. can sound related, but it does not own the behavior being tested. Implement user ID groups. omits the part of the configuration that actually enforces the requested outcome. Define endpoint group mapping. shifts attention away from the condition that the client, AP, or controller must satisfy.

  In production troubleshooting, that distinction matters because changing the wrong layer can leave the original failure untouched.

• Question 122:

  How does enabling webhook notifications enhance Cisco Meraki Wireless integration?

  A. lightweight way to subscribe to alerts
  B. predictable device discovery timing
  C. isolated notification delivery
  D. periodic manual firmware installations
  A. lightweight way to subscribe to alerts

  ---

  Explanation

  lightweight way to subscribe to alerts fits because the item is asking about this condition: How does enabling webhook notifications enhance Cisco Meraki Wireless integration?

  Protocol questions depend on the exact 802.11 function involved. Airtime scheduling, frame exchange, channel behavior, and secure roaming each solve a different problem. The chosen setting maps to the protocol mechanism described by the stem rather than to a controller administration task or a general monitoring feature.

  predictable device discovery timing shifts attention away from the condition that the client, AP, or controller must satisfy. isolated notification delivery belongs to a different workflow and would leave the stated condition unresolved. periodic manual firmware installations may be useful elsewhere, but it does not apply the control that the stem is asking for.

  The same logic applies on real deployments: fix the component that owns the failure domain first, then validate adjacent services.

  A complete review also checks whether the choice would still solve the problem if all other settings stayed the same. That test favors the correct choice because it changes the feature, protocol, or policy named by the question. The distractors may be legitimate Cisco wireless concepts, but they would send the engineer toward a different task and leave the stated requirement unresolved.

• Question 123:

  A network engineer has been tasked with migrating the management mode of a Cisco 9176 AP named "Cisco-AP053540555" in a large enterprise wireless deployment. The AP is currently managed by a Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series WLC, but the organization is transitioning to Meraki cloud management for centralized control and monitoring. To complete this migration, the engineer needs to change the AP's management mode to Meraki with force and noprompt to skip validations using the CLI on the wireless controller.

  What command must the engineer use?

  A. management meraki force noprompt mode
  B. ap management mode meraki force noprompt
  C. ap management meraki force noprompt mode
  D. management-mode meraki force noprompt
  B. ap management mode meraki force noprompt

  ---

  Explanation

  The answer follows from the requirement itself: A network engineer has been tasked with migrating the management mode of a Cisco 9176 AP named 'Cisco-AP053540555' in a large enterprise wireless deployment. The AP is currently managed by a Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series WLC. ap management mode meraki force noprompt is the response that matches that requirement.

  Security questions should separate authentication, authorization, and policy enforcement. The WLAN security method gets the client on the network, while RADIUS and policy attributes decide what access the client receives. This choice is the piece that enables or applies that security behavior; the other choices either skip the external method, use the wrong authentication model, or affect a separate policy area.

  management meraki force noprompt mode shifts attention away from the condition that the client, AP, or controller must satisfy. ap management meraki force noprompt mode belongs to a different workflow and would leave the stated condition unresolved. management-mode meraki force noprompt may be useful elsewhere, but it does not apply the control that the stem is asking for.

  The same logic applies on real deployments: fix the component that owns the failure domain first, then validate adjacent services.

• Question 124:

  A Python script uses the requests library to call a wireless inventory API. The response body is JSON, and the script must convert it into Python objects before reading fields such as macAddress and ipAddress.

  Which method performs this conversion on the response object?

  A. response.split()
  B. response.json()
  C. response.encode()
  D. response.pop()
  B. response.json()

  ---

  Explanation

  The controlling requirement is A Python script uses the requests library to call a wireless inventory API.

  The response body is JSON, and the script must convert it into Python objects before reading fields such as macAddress and ipAddress. Which method performs this conversion on the response object? The choice response.json() maps to that requirement directly.

  Protocol questions depend on the exact 802.11 function involved. Airtime scheduling, frame exchange, channel behavior, and secure roaming each solve a different problem. The chosen setting maps to the protocol mechanism described by the stem rather than to a controller administration task or a general monitoring feature.

  response.split() is too broad or aimed at the wrong layer for this scenario. response.encode() does not provide the specific RF, security, forwarding, management, or automation behavior that is required. response.pop() would be considered only for a different symptom or design goal.

  For exam purposes, separate association, authentication, authorization, forwarding, RF behavior, and management visibility before selecting a command or feature.

• Question 125:

  Refer to the exhibit.

  

  A network administrator is working on a WLC to enable user access for employee tablets using PEAP- MSCHAPv2 with a RADIUS backend.

  The administrator verifies the external authentication configuration and plans to test network connectivity.

  Which code snippet must be added to the configuration for the WLC to support authentication with an external server?

  A. radius server external-radius
  B. external-radius RADIUS-GRP
  C. radius server RADIUS-GRP
  D. external-radius aaa server
  A. radius server external-radius

  ---

  Explanation

  radius server external-radius is the practical selection once the question is reduced to its main requirement: A network administrator is working on a WLC to enable user access for employee tablets using PEAP- MSCHAPv2 with a RADIUS backend. The administrator verifies the external authentication configuration and plans to test network connectivity.

  Security questions should separate authentication, authorization, and policy enforcement. The WLAN security method gets the client on the network, while RADIUS and policy attributes decide what access the client receives. This feature is the piece that enables or applies that security behavior; the other choices either skip the external method, use the wrong authentication model, or affect a separate policy area.

  external-radius RADIUS-GRP shifts attention away from the condition that the client, AP, or controller must satisfy. radius server RADIUS-GRP belongs to a different workflow and would leave the stated condition unresolved. external-radius aaa server may be useful elsewhere, but it does not apply the control that the stem is asking for.

  The same logic applies on real deployments: fix the component that owns the failure domain first, then validate adjacent services.

• Question 126:

  A school district is deploying Cisco Catalyst 9176 APs to remote sites with occasional WAN outages. The IT team wants the APs to attempt joining a secondary or tertiary Catalyst 9800 WLC if the primary controller is unreachable. The team must preconfigure all controller IP addresses using the AP CLI before deploying.

  Which set of CLI commands sets the primary, secondary, and tertiary controller IP addresses on a Catalyst 9176 AP?

  A. set controller primary-base main-wlc 10.10.10.10set controller secondary-base backup 10.10.10.20set controller tertiary-base tertiary-wlc 10.10.10.30
  B. capwap ap primary-base main-wlc 10.10.10.10capwap ap secondary-base backup-wlc 10.10.10.20 capwap ap tertiary-base tertiary-wlc 10.10.10.30
  C. ap join primary 10.10.10.10ap join secondary 10.10.10.20ap join tertiary 10.10.10.30
  D. capwap ap wlc primary 10.10.10.10capwap ap wlc secondary 10.10.10.20capwap ap wlc tertiary 10.10.10.30
  B. capwap ap primary-base main-wlc 10.10.10.10capwap ap secondary-base backup-wlc 10.10.10.20 capwap ap tertiary-base tertiary-wlc 10.10.10.30

  ---

  Explanation

  The key is to match the requested effect, A school district is deploying Cisco Catalyst 9176 APs to remote sites with occasional WAN outages. The IT team wants the APs to attempt joining a secondary or tertiary Catalyst 9800 WLC if the primary controller is unreachable., with the feature or command that actually produces it; that points to capwap ap primary-base main-wlc 10.10.10.10capwap ap secondary-base backup-wlc 10.10.10.20 capwap ap tertiary-base tertiary-wlc 10.10.10.30.

  The IT team wants the APs to attempt joining a secondary or tertiary Catalyst 9800 WLC if the primary controller is unreachable. The requirement is met by capwap ap primary-base main-wlc 10.10.10.10capwap ap secondary-base backup-wlc 10.10.10.20 capwap ap tertiary-base tertiary-wlc

  10.10.10.30 because it owns the behavior being tested. Branch designs usually test the difference between central management and local data handling. FlexConnect behavior is chosen when the AP must keep useful service at the site while still being managed by the controller. That selection fits that branch requirement because it changes forwarding or authentication behavior at the AP site rather than relying on an always-available central path. set controller primary-base main-wlc 10.10.10.10set controller

  secondary-base backup 10.10.10.20set controller tertiary-base tertiary-wlc 10.10.10.30 shifts attention away from the condition that the client, AP, or controller must satisfy. ap join primary 10.10.10.10ap join secondary 10.10.10.20ap join tertiary 10.10.10.30 belongs to a different workflow and would leave the

  stated condition unresolved. capwap ap wlc primary 10.10.10.10capwap ap wlc secondary 10.10.10.20capwap ap wlc tertiary 10.10.10.30 may be useful elsewhere, but it does not apply the control that the stem is asking for. The same logic applies on real deployments: fix the component that owns the

  failure domain first, then validate adjacent services.

• Question 127:

  What does a high SNR value result in?

  A. presence of multipath signal distortion
  B. use of directional array patterns in wireless signaling
  C. increased data integrity with fewer errors
  D. modification of output frequency ranges
  C. increased data integrity with fewer errors

  ---

  Explanation

  The key is to match the requested effect, What does a high SNR value result in?, with the feature or command that actually produces it; that points to increased data integrity with fewer errors.

  RF questions should be solved from measurable behavior. Signal level, noise, channel restrictions, interference classification, and propagation effects determine whether a link is stable and compliant. The chosen behavior is tied to that RF behavior, so it explains the observed result without changing unrelated WLAN security or management settings.

  presence of multipath signal distortion belongs to a different workflow and would leave the stated condition unresolved. use of directional array patterns in wireless signaling may be useful elsewhere, but it does not apply the control that the stem is asking for. modification of output frequency ranges changes an adjacent setting instead of the mechanism that produces the required result.

  The tested habit is to avoid picking a familiar wireless term unless it changes the exact condition in the question.

• Question 128:

  What is a feature of an RTS frame in the context of 802.11 frame types?

  A. It applies spectral mask for transmission.
  B. It requests permission to send data on a channel.
  C. It provides navigation updates for roaming clients.
  D. It compresses frames for bandwidth savings.
  B. It requests permission to send data on a channel.

  ---

  Explanation

  The requirement can be read as follows: What is a feature of an RTS frame in the context of 802.11 frame types? The matching behavior is It requests permission to send data on a channel..

  Protocol questions depend on the exact 802.11 function involved. Airtime scheduling, frame exchange, channel behavior, and secure roaming each solve a different problem. The chosen setting maps to the protocol mechanism described by the stem rather than to a controller administration task or a general monitoring feature.

  It applies spectral mask for transmission. would be considered only for a different symptom or design goal.

  It provides navigation updates for roaming clients. can sound related, but it does not own the behavior being tested. It compresses frames for bandwidth savings. omits the part of the configuration that actually enforces the requested outcome.

  The distractors are plausible only if the problem is misread as a different workflow.

  That reading also helps with the distractors: they may name real wireless concepts, but they do not calculate, configure, or enforce the specific behavior requested here. In review, ask whether applying the choice would immediately change the failure, measurement, policy, or workflow in the stem; if it would not, it should be eliminated.

• Question 129:

  Refer to the exhibit.

  

  An engineer configured a static IP address on a LWAPP, but it is not reachable for management.

  The engineer configured the wrong gateway and must now change the default gateway to 172.16.100.1.

  Which CLI command must the engineer use?

  A. capwap ap ip default-gateway 172.16.100.1
  B. capwap ap controller ip address 172.16.100.1
  C. capwap ap ip 172.16.100.104 255.255.255.192 172.16.100.1
  D. capwap ap ip 172.16.100.104 255.255.255.0 172.16.100.1
  D. capwap ap ip 172.16.100.104 255.255.255.0 172.16.100.1

  ---

  Explanation

  A direct reading of the item leads to capwap ap ip 172.16.100.104 255.255.255.0 172.16.100.1, because the stated requirement is An engineer configured a static IP address on a LWAPP, but it is not reachable for management. The engineer configured the wrong gateway and must now change the default gateway to 172.16.100.1. Which CLI command must the engineer use?

  AP join questions are about how the AP discovers and reaches a controller. Static configuration, DNS discovery, DHCP option 43, and fallback controller settings are separate discovery tools. The chosen behavior gives the AP the controller information required by this scenario, while the distractors either name the wrong discovery method or configure a different AP function.

  capwap ap ip default-gateway 172.16.100.1 shifts attention away from the condition that the client, AP, or controller must satisfy. capwap ap controller ip address 172.16.100.1 belongs to a different workflow and would leave the stated condition unresolved. capwap ap ip 172.16.100.104 255.255.255.192 172.16.100.1 may be useful elsewhere, but it does not apply the control that the stem is asking for.

  The same logic applies on real deployments: fix the component that owns the failure domain first, then validate adjacent services.

• Question 130:

  What is a benefit of applying TACACS authentication for device access?

  A. static user grouping without role differentiation
  B. fragmented statistics across controllers and devices
  C. streamlined administrator access across platforms
  D. single user for device and network access
  C. streamlined administrator access across platforms

  ---

  Explanation

  streamlined administrator access across platforms fits because the item is asking about this condition: What is a benefit of applying TACACS authentication for device access?

  This question is testing whether the requirement is matched to the feature that actually owns it. Many Cisco wireless terms are related, but only one usually changes the described behavior. The selected mechanism is preferred because it applies to the exact condition in the stem, while the remaining choices solve different operational or configuration problems.

  static user grouping without role differentiation changes an adjacent setting instead of the mechanism that produces the required result. fragmented statistics across controllers and devices addresses a different failure domain, so it would not close the gap described here. single user for device and network access is too broad or aimed at the wrong layer for this scenario.

  This keeps the reasoning tied to the implementation detail rather than to broad wireless terminology.

  That reading also helps with the distractors: they may name real wireless concepts, but they do not calculate, configure, or enforce the specific behavior requested here. In review, ask whether applying the choice would immediately change the failure, measurement, policy, or workflow in the stem; if it would not, it should be eliminated.
