CWNP CWAP-404 Exam Objectives :

Section Weight Objectives
Protocol Analysis 15% In this section, the topics covered include how to capture 802.11 frames using the appropriate methods, developing an Understanding and applying the common capture configuration parameters available in protocol analysis tools, analyzing 802.11 frame captures to discover problems and find solutions, and using additional tools that capture 802.11 frames for analysis and troubleshooting. 
Spectrum Analysis 10% In this section, the focus is on how to capture RF spectrum data understand the common views available in spectrum analyzers, and examine e-spectrum captures to identify relevant RF information and issues. The section also covers how to analyze spectrum captures to identify various device signatures and Identify non-802.11 devices based on RF behaviors and signatures. 
PHY Layers and Technologies 10% This section of the exam covers how to understand and describe the functions of the PHY layer and the PHY protocol data units (PPDUs). It also covers how to implement the understanding of PHY technologies, including PHY headers, preambles, training fields, frame aggregation, and data rates, to capture data and explore Key pseudo-header content. 
MAC Sublayer and Functions 25% In this section of the exam, the topics covered include how to understand frame encapsulation and frame aggregation and identify and use MAC information in captured information to do evaluation. It also covers the 802.11 administration frame formats, Data, and QoS Data frame formats, and how to authenticate BSS configuration through protocol analysis. 
WLAN Medium Access 10% This section of the exam covers how to understand 802.11 contention algorithms in-depth and how they impact WLANs as well as how to analyze QoS configuration and operations.
802.11 Frame Exchanges 30% In this section of the exam, topics covered how to capture, understand, and analyze BSS discovery and joining frame exchanges in addition to examining roaming behavior and resolving problems related to roaming. The section covers the analysis of data frame exchanges, e MIMO, and multiuser-specific transmission techniques,  and the behavior and solve problems related to MAC layer operations.
