These 10 free JNCIA-MistAI questions are organized by exam domain, so you can see how each part of the Juniper Networks Certified Associate, Mist AI blueprint is tested. Reveal the answer and explanation under each question.

Domain 1: Juniper Mist Cloud Fundamentals

Question 1

Only the APs' connection to the Mist cloud has been interrupted at a branch. The WLAN uses local bridging, existing clients are authenticated, and local gateway, DHCP, and DNS services remain reachable. The portal shows the APs as disconnected. A colleague recommends taking the WLAN offline until cloud contact returns. Which assessment should guide the response?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D - Local forwarding can continue; investigate cloud connectivity without disabling the working WLAN.

Domain 2: Juniper Mist Configuration Basics

Question 2

A company replaces its RadSec server certificate. The server still accepts the Mist AP certificates, but the APs reject the new server certificate with an unknown-issuer error during TLS setup. The certificate's server name and validity dates are correct. Which certificate change repairs the missing trust?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B - Import the replacement server's issuing certificate chain under RadSec Certificates.

Question 3

A deployment contractor must claim APs, assign them to sites, and place them on floorplans using the Mist AI mobile app. The contractor must have neither portal access nor permission to remove devices from the organization. This assignment calls for the:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C - Installer role.

Domain 3: Juniper Mist Network Operations and Management

Question 4

After an AP is moved to a replacement switch, it remains online in Mist. Clients authenticate to the Staff WLAN but cannot obtain IP addresses. The WLAN locally bridges client traffic on tagged VLAN 140. Wired Assurance shows native VLAN 10 and allowed tagged VLANs 20 and 30 on the AP-facing port. The DHCP service for VLAN 140 is healthy. What change restores connectivity while preserving the intended management and client VLANs?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C - Add VLAN 140 to the tagged VLANs permitted on the AP-facing port.

Question 5

A managed laptop authenticates with EAP-TLS through Access Assurance. The log shows Access-Accept, but a posture policy assigns VLAN 900 because the endpoint-management system reports noncompliance. That VLAN permits the remediation portal and blocks business applications. The user can reach the portal but calls this an authentication outage. What response follows the evidence?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B - Resolve the compliance failure, then reevaluate the device for normal network authorization.

Domain 4: Juniper Mist Monitoring and Analytics

Question 6

During a morning interval, a WLAN records 1,500 connection attempts and a Successful Connects result of 92%. The DHCP classifier accounts for 75% of failed attempts; association and authentication account for the rest. Individual clients may have made several attempts. The incident summary must identify the leading contributor without overstating user impact. Which statement belongs in it?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A - DHCP failures affected 6% of connection attempts; investigate the DHCP service and path first.

Question 7

At 14:12, a handset fails to connect and then succeeds on a retry. The fault cannot be reproduced. Client Insights includes a packet capture for the failed event. The engineer needs to determine whether the DHCP server was silent or returned a negative response. Which evidence should be examined first?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D - The dynamic packet capture associated with the 14:12 event.

Domain 5: Marvis™ Virtual Network Assistant AI

Question 8

Before a new office opens, Marvis Minis runs on a supported Mist AP with the required subscription. DHCP, ARP, DNS, and an application-reachability check pass on the employee VLAN, although no employees are present. What has this validation established?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D - Employee-VLAN services responded; individual client authentication can still fail.

Domain 6: Location-based Services

Question 9

An airport has two indoor-location requirements: staff must find baggage carts carrying compatible BLE tags, and travelers must receive turn-by-turn directions through an integrated mobile app. Location-capable Mist APs are already installed. Select the service pairing that matches these requirements.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A - Asset Visibility for cart tracking; User Engagement for traveler wayfinding.

Domain 7: Juniper Mist Cloud Operations

Question 10

An inventory integration makes one REST GET request per site every minute for 90 sites, using a user API token. No other calls use that account. The hourly allowance is 5,000 calls, and inventory data may be up to two minutes old. A developer suggests splitting the requests between two tokens belonging to the same user. Which revision actually meets both constraints?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A - Poll each site every two minutes, producing 2,700 calls per hour for the account.
