In the context of AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting), what does 'Authorization' determine?

Whether the user's credentials are valid

How much bandwidth a user can consume

What resources a user is allowed to access and what actions they can perform

The logging of user activities for auditing

What is the primary function of a firewall in a network?

To detect and alert on known attack signatures

To provide wireless access to a network

To filter traffic based on a set of rules to allow or block communications

To encrypt traffic between two sites

A hospital is deploying a wireless network for guest internet access. The network must keep guest traffic completely separate from the internal medical-device network, and guests must authenticate with a temporary code issued at the front desk. Which configuration best meets these requirements?

Place guests on the internal VLAN but restrict their access using an access control list on the router.

Create a separate SSID for guests, place it on a dedicated VLAN with no route to internal subnets, and use WPA2-Enterprise with a RADIUS server that validates one-time codes.

Configure a single SSID with WPA2-PSK and share the password with guests at the front desk.

Use the same SSID as the internal network but enable client isolation so guests cannot communicate with each other.
