Explanation
Cisco's RF Planner is a pre-deployment planning tool - it helps network engineers design wireless coverage before installation. It provides heat maps of AP radio coverage (C) to visualize signal strength, generates a project bill of materials (D) listing the hardware needed, and estimates the number of access points required for a given area (E) based on coverage and capacity needs - all core planning functions.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A (determining logged-in users) is a function of identity/AAA systems like Cisco ISE, not a planning tool.
- B (dynamically disconnecting rogue APs) is a runtime security feature found in wireless controllers (like Cisco WLC/Catalyst Center), not a planner.
- F (customer quotes and bill of sale) is a CRM/sales function - RF Planner produces a BOM for internal project use, not a sales document for customers.
Memory tip: Think of RF Planner as a pre-sales/pre-install architect's tool - it answers "Where do I put APs? How many do I need? What does coverage look like?" (C, D, E). Anything involving live network monitoring, security enforcement, or sales transactions happens elsewhere.
