300-425 Question 136
Single answerYou are tasked with deploying Cisco Spaces in a large enterprise to provide location-based analytics and services. One of the requirements is to integrate with an existing Cisco wireless network and enable real-time location tracking. Which component is crucial to ensure the wireless network is capable of providing the necessary location data to Cisco Spaces?
- A
Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) with integrated CMX services
- B
Cisco DNA Center with Assurance enabled
- C
APIC-EM to manage wireless policies
- D
Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series WLC with telemetry enabled
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Cisco Spaces relies on location data provided by Cisco wireless infrastructure. The Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) with integrated CMX services is responsible for aggregating and processing data from access points to enable real-time location tracking. This data is then shared with Cisco Spaces to deliver location-based analytics and services.
- A. Correct.
Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) with integrated CMX services is crucial for providing location data to Cisco Spaces. It collects and processes wireless client data, which is required for real-time location tracking.
- B. Incorrect.
Cisco DNA Center with Assurance enabled is designed to provide network visibility and insights, but it does not directly provide the real-time location tracking data that Cisco Spaces requires.
- C. Incorrect.
APIC-EM is a legacy SDN controller that manages policies but does not support location services or integration with Cisco Spaces.
- D. Incorrect.
Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series WLC with telemetry enabled supports advanced features, but telemetry alone does not provide the necessary location tracking data for Cisco Spaces integration.
