01ExtremeControl roles, authentication and policy decisions
ExtremeControl provides network-access-control capabilities associated with ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine under the supported architecture. Site Engine supplies relevant management interfaces and configuration, while Control engines participate in authentication and authorization decisions.
384 words, about 2 min02ExtremeControl engines, RADIUS and operational diagnosis
A Control engine depends on supported communication with its management platform, relevant network-access devices and backend identity services. Identify the actual RADIUS clients, source addresses, shared-secret or other supported transport protection and permitted paths.
392 words, about 2 min03Identity, access and cryptographic protection
This domain tests the identity lifecycle and the mechanisms that turn an identity into an authorised action. Expect questions that separate authentication from authorisation and that ask which access control model fits a scenario.
857 words, about 4 min04Network boundaries and protected communication
This domain tests perimeter architecture and the device behaviour that makes segmentation real. Questions tend to be scenario-based: where a host belongs, which rule is needed, and what a given protocol actually protects.
430 words, about 2 min05Security operations, monitoring and response
This domain is about running security as a repeatable service rather than a series of heroic acts. Questions target process ownership, change control and the operational metrics that show the programme is working.
803 words, about 4 min06Continuity, backup and technical recovery
This domain tests continuity planning: how an organisation keeps critical services running during disruption and how it recovers afterwards. Distinguish the continuity plan from the disaster recovery plan and know the time-based metrics precisely.
