Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) v1.2Network AssuranceMedium

A network operations team uses Cisco DNA Center Assurance to monitor the health of their enterprise network. They observe a sudden drop in the 'Client Health Score' for a specific building, accompanied by alerts indicating high retransmission rates and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for wireless clients in that area. Which specific DNA Center Assurance capability allows the team to quickly identify clients experiencing these issues and view their detailed connectivity metrics?

  1. AApplication Experience Dashboard
  2. BClient 360 View
  3. CFabric Assurance Dashboard
  4. DNetwork Device Health Dashboard
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B. Client 360 View

Cisco DNA Center's Client 360 View provides a comprehensive, detailed perspective of individual client connectivity, including signal strength (RSSI), SNR, retransmission rates, associated APs, and historical data, which is crucial for diagnosing specific client-side wireless issues.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. The Application Experience Dashboard monitors application performance, not specific client wireless connectivity issues.
  • C. The Fabric Assurance Dashboard focuses on the health and performance of the SD-Access fabric, not individual client wireless issues.
  • D. The Network Device Health Dashboard focuses on the health of network devices (routers, switches, APs), not individual client details.
