I'll have a guess with A :roll:

 

Total guess :C

 

Having read the question properly this time, i'm doing a hop to C....

I thought the authorisation had already taken place, but working it out again it doesnt seem too, and having no authorisation would be a bit sloppy, so i reckon its probably gonna be C....

Wont change my vote tho (just my side!)

:roll:

 

I'll go with C as well

 

Clearly A

....preparing for the worst...... :roll:

 

Correct answer is....C.

To make a long story short, the client sends a request to the AP which is forwarded to the server. The server sends back a request for EAP ID to the AP which forwards it to the client. Client then sends the ID to the AP and it's forwarded to the server. Assuming the ID is valid, the server sends down an EAP success message to the AP. The AP then changes the port from blocked for forward mode and transactions can commence.

It was a tough one because you have to envision the multi-step handshake and where the next step would be. Good one. More tomorrow.

 

Phew... made the switch just in time!
