300-430 Question 247
Single answerA company has deployed a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) to manage its wireless network. An administrator wants to configure the WLC to ensure that clients are automatically directed to the least congested access point within a given area. Which WLC feature should the administrator enable to achieve this?
- A
Load Balancing
- B
Fast Roaming
- C
Airtime Fairness
- D
FlexConnect
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
To direct clients to the least congested access point, the Load Balancing feature of the WLC should be enabled. This feature ensures optimal performance by preventing access points from becoming overloaded and distributing client devices evenly across available resources.
- A. Correct.
Load Balancing is a feature of the WLC that ensures clients are distributed across access points to avoid congestion, making it the correct answer.
- B. Incorrect.
Fast Roaming is used to minimize latency during client transitions between access points, but it does not ensure load distribution.
- C. Incorrect.
Airtime Fairness ensures equitable access to the wireless medium for all clients but does not address access point congestion.
- D. Incorrect.
FlexConnect is used for managing wireless networks in remote or branch offices without requiring a direct WLC connection, and it is unrelated to client distribution.
