A. B. C. D.B.
CleanAir is a feature available on Cisco wireless access points (APs) that detects and mitigates RF interference. It continuously monitors the RF spectrum for interference and provides a report on the sources of interference.
To perform a Layer 1 survey, an engineer would use a tool such as Metageek Chanalyzer to analyze the RF spectrum. This type of survey is focused on detecting and analyzing RF interference and is typically performed by scanning all available channels to identify sources of interference.
If an engineer is performing a Layer 1 survey using Metageek Chanalyzer only on the current operating channel, it means they are only scanning the specific channel that the AP is currently using. This would provide limited information about interference on other channels and may not give a comprehensive view of the overall RF environment.
Given that the question is asking about the operating mode of a CleanAir AP, the answer would be A. monitor mode. This mode is used to continuously monitor the RF environment for interference and can identify and mitigate sources of interference on all available channels.
The other answer choices are not relevant to the question. Local mode is a mode where the AP is directly connected to a wired network, and provides wireless connectivity to clients. Sniffer mode is used for packet capture and analysis, and SE-connect is not a valid operating mode for a Cisco CleanAir AP.
