Here's the question bank on all the ICT topics.
Given below are two statements regarding Wireless Access Points (WAPs).Statement I: WAPs are connected into the wired network at fixed locations.Statement II: The WAP receives and transmits data between the two wired LANs.In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Wireless Access Points (WAPs) connect traditional wired networks to wireless clients. These wireless networks provide ease of access to the network for mobile users, increasing productivity while reducing infrastructure costs. Important PointsStatement I: WAPs are connected to the wired network at fixed locations. A WAP is a device that allows different types of wireless network cards to connect without cables, hence wireless, to connect to Local area networks (LANs) and access resources, including the Internet. A WAP plugs into a hub or switch and is the device that joins the unwired network to the wired network. It is simpler and easier to install WAPs to connect all the computers or devices in your network than to use wires and cables. Therefore, statement 1 is correct. Statement II: The WAP receives and transmits data between the two wired LANsWAP is used in an infrastructure wireless network design. Used in the infrastructure mode, the WAP receives transmissions from wireless devices within a specific range and transmits those signals to the network beyond. This network may be a private Ethernet network or the Internet. A wireless access point (WAP) is a hardware device or configured node on a local area network (LAN) that allows wireless capable devices and wired networks to connect through a wireless standard, including Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Therefore, statement 2 is incorrect. Hence, Both Statement I and Statement II are false
