Where should you position the enterprise wireless gateway on the wired network segment?
  1. Between the access point and the wired network upstream
  2. Between the access point and the wireless network clients
  3. Between the switch and the router on the wireless network segment
  4. In place of a regular access point on the wireless LAN segment
Explanation
Answer - A - You should position the enterprise wireless gateway between the access point and the wired network upstream on the wired network segment.

Key Takeaway: An enterprise wireless gateway has no wireless segments. These gateways have a downstream and upstream wired connection that allows them to act as a gateway or firewall of sorts. Wireless LAN clients must be authenticated through an enterprise wireless gateway before the packets are passed upstream into the network.
