If you want to create an open authentication security template, which of the following configuration is correct?

Question

Options

• AAC-WLAN-view] security-profile name security-1 id 1
• BAC-WLAN-view] security-profile name security-1 id 1
• CAC-WLAN-view] security-profile name security-1 id 1
• DAC-WLAN-view] security-profile name security-1 id 1

• A
  10% (3)
• B
  86% (25)
• C
  3% (1)

Explanation

Note: All four answer choices appear identical as presented, which suggests the formatting lost the distinguishing command details (likely a follow-up line within each option such as the security-policy setting). Based on the topic and correct answer, here is an explanation grounded in Huawei WLAN configuration principles.

Option B is correct because open authentication requires the security policy to be set to "open" within the security profile, meaning no encryption or key exchange is enforced and clients can associate without credentials. The other options (A, C, and D) most likely specify an incorrect security policy such as WPA, WPA2, or WEP, which all require authentication mechanisms incompatible with open access. Creating a profile with a non-open policy would result in clients being required to present credentials or keys, which defeats the purpose of open authentication. Even if the profile name and ID are correctly defined, the security-policy line within the profile block is what determines the authentication type.

Memory tip: Think of "open authentication" as an unlocked door. If the security-policy command names anything other than "open," you have added a lock, which makes it no longer an open-authentication profile.
