What is a key consideration when assigning access points as wIPS sensors in a large enterprise environment?

Ensuring that all APs are in dedicated monitor mode to maximize coverage

Placing sensors to provide adequate RF coverage of the areas that need monitoring

Assigning each sensor a unique SSID to avoid interference

Using only APs from a single model to ensure consistency

What is the primary purpose of generating wIPS reports in Cisco Catalyst Center?

To monitor real-time client roaming behavior

To assess the security posture of the wireless network and track threat trends over time

To configure the wIPS signatures and rules

To assign access points to wIPS sensor roles

A retail chain is deploying wIPS across multiple stores. They have a mix of AP models, some of which support dedicated monitor mode and others that do not. The security team wants consistent wIPS coverage in all stores. What should they do in Catalyst Center?

Assign only the APs that support dedicated monitor mode as wIPS sensors

Deploy a separate wIPS sensor AP in each store regardless of model

Configure the wIPS profile to only use signatures that work on all AP models

Use hybrid mode for all APs to ensure consistent monitoring and client service

Which statement accurately describes the role of an access point in a Cisco Catalyst Center wIPS deployment?

The AP is not required in a wIPS deployment because Catalyst Center can monitor the RF environment directly.

The AP acts as a sensor that scans the airwaves for rogue devices and sends reports to the WLC.

The AP makes all wIPS policy decisions and enforces them without controller involvement.

The AP only forwards client traffic and does not participate in wireless security monitoring.
