Which statement regarding guest mode SSID is correct?

It allows clients configured without SSID to associate.
Clients can transmit packets using its SSID.
It supports only one guest-mode SSID at a time.
It provides a dedicated network for guest users without security constraints.

The correct answer is: It allows clients configured without SSID to associate.

The correct statement regarding guest mode SSID is that it allows clients configured without an SSID to associate. Guest mode SSIDs are specifically designed to provide easy access for users, such as visitors or temporary users, who may not have the necessary access credentials to join a secure network. In guest mode, devices can connect without needing to specify an SSID or go through complicated authentication processes, making it more user-friendly for non-registered clients. In contrast, the other statements either misrepresent the capabilities of guest network configurations or incorrectly describe security aspects. For example, while guests can transmit packets over the network once connected, the nature of guest SSIDs typically involves limited or isolated access to prevent unauthorized entry into the main network, which underscores the importance of security considerations rather than lacking them entirely. Additionally, while a guest network may support multiple SSIDs, it does not enforce a restriction of having only one at any given time; rather, it can be configured to have several if the network architecture allows for it.
