1An administrator wants the simplest no-cost way to manage a small deployment of up to 10 cloud-ready Extreme devices in ExtremeCloud IQ. Which license tier should they use?
A.ExtremeCloud IQ Connect
B.ExtremeCloud IQ Pilot
C.ExtremeCloud IQ CoPilot
D.ExtremeCloud IQ Navigator
Explanation: ExtremeCloud IQ Connect is the subscription-free base tier that provides cloud management for supported devices with basic onboarding, configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. It is limited to a maximum of 10 devices, 2 network policies, and 4 SSIDs.
2When onboarding a Universal Hardware switch to ExtremeCloud IQ, the administrator is prompted to choose a Device OS. Which two operating system personas are valid for a Universal switch?
A.IOS or NX-OS
B.Switch Engine or Fabric Engine
C.WiNG or HiveOS
D.EXOS-Lite or Classic OS
Explanation: Extreme Universal Hardware switches can run either the Switch Engine (EXOS-based) or Fabric Engine (VOSS-based) persona, and the administrator selects this OS during onboarding. The chosen persona determines the device's feature set and configuration model.
3Which piece of device information is required to onboard a real Extreme cloud-ready device into ExtremeCloud IQ?
A.The device's MAC address only
B.A VIQ activation token
C.The device's serial number
D.The device's running-config file
Explanation: ExtremeCloud IQ onboards real devices by serial number, which can be entered manually (comma-separated) or imported from a CSV file. The onboarding logic validates serial numbers against model compatibility and manufacturing date before adding the device.
4An administrator wants to import 200 access points at once using a spreadsheet of serial numbers. What is the recommended way to prepare the file for ExtremeCloud IQ Advanced Onboarding?
A.Create the CSV in Excel so leading zeros are preserved automatically
B.Convert serial numbers to scientific notation before importing
C.Enter all serials in a single cell separated by semicolons
D.Use a plain text editor so leading zeros in serial numbers are not lost
Explanation: Extreme documentation warns against using spreadsheet applications like Excel to build the CSV, because they reformat serial numbers with leading zeros into numeric or scientific-notation values. A plain text editor preserves the exact serial number string, with one field for serial number and optionally a second for model.
5ExtremeCloud IQ is described as a cloud-agnostic platform. In which environments can it be hosted or accessed according to Extreme Networks?
A.Only Extreme-owned regional data centers
B.AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure, plus private and on-premises clouds
C.Only AWS public cloud
D.Only on-premises appliances with no public cloud option
Explanation: Extreme positions ExtremeCloud IQ as the only cloud-agnostic network management solution available on AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure, as well as in private and on-premises cloud environments. This flexibility lets customers choose their preferred deployment model.
6In ExtremeCloud IQ, what is the primary purpose of a network policy?
A.To store firmware images for offline upgrades
B.To assign per-device IP addresses via DHCP
C.To define a reusable set of configuration settings (such as SSIDs, VLANs, and device templates) applied to a group of devices
D.To define ExtremeGuest captive portal billing plans only
Explanation: A network policy is the central configuration container in ExtremeCloud IQ. It bundles settings such as wireless SSIDs, switch and AP device templates, VLANs, and policy options, and is then assigned to and pushed onto a set of devices that share the same characteristics.
7When you add a new network policy, which is typically the FIRST step in the policy configuration workflow?
A.Deploy the policy to devices
B.Run a RADIUS test
C.Generate a Network Scorecard
D.Configure the Policy Details, including choosing the policy type (Wireless, Switching, and/or Routing)
Explanation: The network policy workflow begins with Policy Details, where the administrator names the policy and selects the policy type (Wireless, Switching, Branch Routing, or a combination). Subsequent steps configure wireless networks, switch templates, and router templates before the final deployment step.
8An administrator wants to deploy and test configuration before adding physical hardware. Which device type can they add during Advanced Onboarding for this purpose?
A.Simulated devices
B.Ghost devices
C.Shadow nodes
D.Template-only devices
Explanation: During Advanced Onboarding, ExtremeCloud IQ lets you add either Real or Simulated devices. Simulated devices let you build and validate network policies and templates by model before the physical hardware arrives; however, policies can only be pushed to real (not simulated) devices.
9How does a device template relate to a model and a network policy in ExtremeCloud IQ?
A.A single device template can be applied to any model across all policies
B.Templates are global objects that cannot be tied to a policy
C.Each network policy has only one template per device model
D.A device template can be shared between AP and switch models simultaneously
Explanation: In ExtremeCloud IQ, each network policy contains only one device template corresponding to a given device model. To apply different configurations to the same model, you must create a new network policy or modify an existing one and configure a new template.
10What is the main benefit of using AP device templates with default settings in a network policy?
A.They disable wireless radios by default for security
B.They eliminate the need to assign any network policy
C.They restrict APs to a single SSID permanently
D.They enable quick AP deployment by applying most port and configuration settings automatically when APs are onboarded
Explanation: AP device templates define default settings that ExtremeCloud IQ applies automatically when matching APs are onboarded, enabling quick deployment with most port and configuration settings already in place. Individual settings can still be modified per device afterward as needed.
