A county library WLAN shows rising client counts. Leadership wants capacity forecasts, but policy requires client isolation on the public SSID. How should monitoring data be used?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Watch the meters, plan more APs, and leave isolation on—the policy is not optional ballast. Capacity forecasting and security policy can walk together. Turning off isolation to “fix” load is solving the wrong problem.
Full Explanation
Security lifecycle load observation uses monitoring to forecast infrastructure needs while remaining compliant with security policy. Client isolation on public SSIDs is a security control and should not be sacrificed merely to defer capacity planning. Utilization-based forecasting guides AP growth without violating isolation requirements.
