Machine-checked — no person has signed for it. This question was read against the source cited below by an automated pass, which found no contradiction. That is a weaker claim than it sounds: the same kind of process wrote the question, so it can confirm its own mistake.

Treat it as a good draft rather than as settled fact, and read the source below before you rely on it. It is not used in mock exams here — only questions a person has signed for are.

Type the answer.

Accepted answers

Case sensitive — Linux is, and grading LS as ls would teach a falsehood.

Why

`nmcli device wifi list` prints the visible access points with their SSID, mode, channel, signal strength and security, marking the one in use with an asterisk. The listing comes from NetworkManager's cached scan results, so `nmcli device wifi rescan` forces a fresh scan when a newly powered-up network is missing. nmcli accepts unambiguous abbreviations of objects and commands, so `nmcli d w l` is equivalent in practice.
