An AP is receiving 802.11 packets on its 802.11a radio with an RSSI value of -77 dBm. The current AP is part of an AP group that has been assigned an RF profile with RX-SOP set to Medium for 802.11a. Which action does the AP take with the packets?
A.
All frames are classified as non-Wi-Fi frames and are not decoded by the 5 GHz radio.
B.
Frames are decoded by the 2.4 GHz radio.
C.
All frames are classified as non-Wi-Fi frames and are not decoded by the 2.4 GHz radio.
An RSSI value of -77 dBm is within the range that a 5 GHz radio can receive and decode, provided it’s not below the RX-SOP threshold set for the RF profile. Since the RF profile is set to Medium for 802.11a, which operates in the 5 GHz band, the AP’s 5 GHz radio will decode the frames.
