A courthouse WLAN design assumes reliable addressing, name resolution, and time sync for 802.1X and certificate validation. What should the designer document as network service dependencies?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Pretty RF will not fix a broken DHCP scope or skewed clocks that kill certificates. Write DHCP, DNS, and NTP into the design as first-class dependencies.
Full Explanation
Enterprise WLAN operation depends on correctly designed DHCP, DNS, and NTP services for addressing, discovery, and time-sensitive security functions such as certificate validation. Documenting these dependencies prevents RF-only designs that fail at join or roaming when supporting services are wrong. Ignoring them undermines 802.1X and operational stability even when coverage is excellent.
