A warehouse AP for city fleet tablets is proposed with a MAC allow-list as the only WLAN security control. What should the technician recommend?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A MAC allow-list is just a guest list written in ink anyone can photocopy. On wireless, addresses are visible and easy to clone, so it cannot stand alone—pair the warehouse SSID with real WPA2 or WPA3 security instead.
Full Explanation
MAC filtering as a primary or sole security control is a deprecated legacy practice. Frame headers expose client MACs, which attackers can spoof to match the allow-list. Municipal technicians should require modern Personal or Enterprise suites from the design document rather than relying on MAC filtering alone.
