Free Juniper JN0-452 Practice Exam with Questions & Answers

In this scenario, you would begin troubleshooting by checking the WLAN-level Pre-Shared Keys.

According to the Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controller Software Configuration Guide1, you can configure a time-based setting for WLAN-level Pre-Shared Keys (PSKs) that will reset the key after a specified interval. This feature is useful for enhancing security and preventing unauthorized access. If a user reports that the Wi-Fi worked for a week and now it does not work, you should check the WLAN-level PSK settings and see if the key has been changed.

Once a client discovers an access point, the correct order of steps for successful 802.1X authentication is Open System Authentication -> Association -> 802.1X Authentication. So the correct answer is D.Open System Authentication -> Association -> 802.1X Authentication.

In the Juniper Mist dashboard, the Marvis Actions page serves as a centralized "proactive inbox" that identifies critical issues across the organization. However, the depth of information and the ability to interact with these findings are strictly tied to the Marvis Virtual Network Assistant (VNA) subscription.

The Mist dashboard provides a basic level of visibility even without a full Marvis license, allowing administrators to see that certain high-level categories (such as AP, Switch, or Gateway) have identified issues. This is designed to demonstrate the value of the AI engine. However, when you see a lock symbol next to sub-categories or specific Marvis Actions, it indicates that the organizational account does not have an active Marvis VNA subscription for those specific devices.

Without the subscription, the system will not permit the user to "drill down" into the root cause analysis, view historical event timelines, or access the specific remediation steps suggested by the AI. For example, while a standard Wi-Fi Assurance license might show that an AP is offline, the Marvis VNA subscription is what enables the detailed investigation—such as determining if the offline status is due to a cable failure, a bad PoE port on a switch, or a firmware mismatch.

To unlock these features and remove the lock symbols, a SUB-VNA (Virtual Network Assistant) subscription must be applied to the access points in the site. Once licensed, Marvis can provide full "conversational AI" capabilities, allowing you to ask natural language questions about the APs and giving you the interactive tools needed to resolve the issues identified in the Actions dashboard. Therefore, the presence of the lock icon is a direct indicator of a missing or expired subscription tier required for advanced AI-driven troubleshooting.

Within the Juniper Mist AI ecosystem, telemetry data and network activities are organized into distinct categories to facilitate efficient troubleshooting and monitoring. While "Organization" (A) represents a management hierarchy and "Security" (C) is a functional domain (such as Rogue AP detection or WxLAN policies), Mist specifically filters operational events into three primary categories: Site, AP (Access Point), and Client. These categories are reflected across the Mist dashboard, particularly within the Insights and Monitor views.

Site Events (E) represent macro-level issues that affect the entire physical location or a significant portion of the network infrastructure. Examples include DHCP server unreachable errors, DNS latency spikes, or site-wide configuration changes. These events are crucial for identifying systemic problems that originate from the wired side of the network or the local environment rather than individual wireless devices.

AP Events (B) focus on the health and status of the hardware itself. This category includes events such as AP reboots, firmware upgrades, Ethernet link toggling (up/down), and radio failures. By filtering for AP-specific events, administrators can quickly determine if a connectivity issue is localized to a specific hardware unit or a PoE power supply problem.

Client Events (D) provide the most granular level of visibility, tracking the specific journey of an end-user device. This includes the entire 802.11 state machine: association, authentication, and DHCP handshake. Client events are further classified as "Good," "Bad," or "Neutral," allowing Marvis AI to correlate failures (like an incorrect PSK or a slow DHCP response) to a specific user session. This three-tiered event structure—Site, AP, and Client—is the foundation of Mist's AI-driven root cause analysis, enabling the system to pinpoint exactly where in the stack a failure occurred.

When deploying multiple Mist APs across many sites in your network and grouping similar devices together to easily apply consistent WxLAN policies across multiple sites, you should use device profiles.

The Clone Site feature in the Juniper Mist dashboard is a powerful tool designed to streamline the deployment of new physical locations by duplicating the environmental and operational logic of an existing "gold standard" site. However, to avoid configuration conflicts (such as duplicate addresses) and to maintain the integrity of the hierarchy, Mist is selective about which objects are carried over during the cloning process.

According to Juniper Mist documentation, only the settings visible on the Site Configuration page are copied to the new site. This specifically includes:

Auto Firmware Upgrade settings (A): The specific versioning (Production vs. RC) and the weekly or daily maintenance windows defined for the site are preserved. This ensures that the new site follows the same lifecycle management policy as the primary site.

RF Templates (B): The radio resource management (RRM) profile assigned to the site is copied. This includes channel planning, bandwidth settings (20/40/80 MHz), and power level constraints tailored for that environment.

Other Site-Level Settings: This also includes Webhooks, Rogue/Honeypot AP detection rules, and Location Services settings.

Conversely, certain objects are explicitly not copied. The Site Location (C) and Site Name are excluded because each site must be geographically unique for accurate mapping and time zone calculation. WLANs (D) are also not copied through the Clone Site function; SSIDs are typically managed at the Organization level via WLAN Templates, which are then mapped to sites or site groups rather than being "hardcoded" into an individual site's local configuration. By cloning the site-specific parameters like RF templates and upgrade schedules, Mist allows administrators to rapidly scale their infrastructure while ensuring the core network access (WLANs) is maintained through the overarching organizational policy.

According to the Webhooks - Mist document, two types of information that would be streamed through webhooks are:

Alerts, which are notifications that are triggered by certain events or conditions on the network.

SLE metrics of clients, which are service level expectations that measure the quality of experience for clients on various aspects such as connection, coverage, capacity, throughput, and roaming.

When using location-based services (LBS) at a new warehouse and placing APs on the floor plan with correct scale while ensuring correct location accuracy in this scenario where APs are mounted on trusses 14 feet (4.3 meters) from floor, two actions that should be taken are installing Virtual Beacons in each aisle and configuring height of each AP. So the correct answers are A. Install Virtual Beacons in each aisle and B. Configure height of each AP.
