300-425 Question 286
Single answerA network administrator is configuring a Cisco WLC (Wireless LAN Controller) to support a new wireless network deployment. The network requires centralized management, seamless roaming between access points, and support for dynamic RF optimization. Which configuration option on the WLC is essential to achieve this functionality?
- A
Enable Mobility Groups
- B
Configure a Static RF Profile
- C
Enable FlexConnect Local Switching
- D
Set up RADIUS Authentication
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Mobility Groups are a critical feature of Cisco WLCs that enable seamless roaming between access points, ensuring uninterrupted client sessions during movement. This feature also supports centralized management and coordination between access points, which is necessary for dynamic RF optimization and efficient wireless network operation.
- A. Correct.
Enabling Mobility Groups is essential for seamless roaming and centralized management across multiple access points. It allows for the efficient handoff of clients between APs while maintaining their sessions.
- B. Incorrect.
Configuring a Static RF Profile is useful for managing RF parameters manually, but it does not enable seamless roaming or centralized management. Dynamic RF optimization requires features like RRM, not static profiles.
- C. Incorrect.
FlexConnect Local Switching is used for decentralized data forwarding at the AP level, which is not compatible with centralized management and seamless roaming.
- D. Incorrect.
Setting up RADIUS Authentication is important for secure access control, but it does not directly influence centralized management, roaming, or RF optimization.
