Which two methods are used to reduce the AP coverage area? (Choose two)

B . Disable 2.4 GHz and use only 5 GHz.
C . Reduce AP transmit power.
D . Increase minimum mandatory data rate
E . Enable Fastlane

Answer: C, D

Explanation:

Reducing the AP transmit power will decrease the range of the signal, thereby reducing the coverage area. This is effective in controlling the spread of the wireless signal to only the desired areas. Increasing the minimum mandatory data rate effectively shrinks the cell size because only clients capable of higher data rates will be able to connect, which typically requires them to be closer to the AP.
