In a MikroTik Hotspot environment, you can bypass authentication for specific users using the IP Bindings feature. This feature lets you mark a host as bypassed (authorized without login), blocked, or regular.
* A. Users # Incorrect. This contains login credentials for regular authenticated users.
* B. IP bindings # Correct. This allows specific devices (by IP or MAC) to bypass login requirements.
* C. Walled-garden # Incorrect. This allows unauthenticated access to specific domains or URLs, not devices.
* D. Walled-garden IP # Incorrect. Similar to option C, it controls destination IP access, not client exemption.
Extract from Official MTCNA Course Material - Hotspot:
"To allow a specific host to bypass authentication, use IP Bindings with the 'bypassed' type." Extract from Rene Meneses MTCNA Study Guide - Hotspot Section:
"The IP Bindings tab in the Hotspot menu is used to set specific IPs or MACs as bypassed. This exempts them from login." Extract from Terry Combs MTCNA Notes - Hotspot Bypass:
"Use IP Bindings for fixed clients (e.g., printers or servers) that should not be challenged by the Hotspot portal."
