If you are going to do that why bother? Chances are pretty good that
the person you are interviewing has already passed certification so why
ask them again? Personally I find this kind of interview insulting and
it definitely indicates that the company either doesn't know about
security, or more likely doesn't care enough about it to make it worth
my while to work there. Bad interview techniques = bad hire = bad
security.
A better solution in my opinion is to ask questions based on a real
world scenario, such as, "recently a wireless initiative was passed down
by management and we are going to roll out global wireless access to our
company in the next year. What would you suggest as some things that we
would want to do in order to keep our network secure as we deploy this
technology?" The is no "right" answer that would apply to every
company. However the guy you want to hire will ask some more questions
about what you want to accomplish with this deployment before offering
his suggestion. Also, even from the candidates you do not hire, you may
get some ideas that you hadn't considered.
Just my opinion
