Certified Wireless LAN
Administration
The CWNA™ certification covering the
current objectives will certify that successful candidates know the
fundamentals of RF behavior, can describe the features and functions of
wireless LAN components, and have the skills needed to install,
configure, and troubleshoot wireless LAN hardware peripherals and
protocols. A typical candidate should have Network+, CCNA, CNA, or MCP
certification or equivalent knowledge, although these certifications are
not required for CWNA certification. The skills and knowledge measured
by this examination are derived from a survey of current wireless
networking experts and professionals. The results of this survey were
used in weighing the subject areas and ensuring that weighting on the
exam is representative of the relative importance of individual content.
