Sample AP Networking practice question

A remote worker notices their corporate laptop frequently loses connection because a compromised Internet of Things (IoT) smart lightbulb on the same flat home network is flooding the router with malicious traffic. Which network reconfiguration best resolves this issue and prevents similar future disruptions?

Segmenting by risk level to isolate vulnerable IoT devices from critical work systems.

Correct answer

Segmenting by performance needs to isolate high-bandwidth IoT devices from work systems.

Segmenting by user type to isolate guest IoT devices from the primary work systems.

Segmenting by device role to isolate media-streaming IoT devices from work systems.

Explanation

Identifying that smart home devices pose inherent security vulnerabilities that can compromise flat networks. Segmenting by risk level isolates these untrusted IoT devices, preventing malicious traffic from laterally affecting critical work systems.
