Question

Difficulty: MediumWireless LAN Client Connectivity Configuration via WLC GUI

A network administrator is setting up a wireless network for guest access on a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC). The Profile Name and SSID have already been defined. To ensure that all client traffic associated with this WLAN is assigned to VLAN 30, which action must the administrator take within the WLAN edit settings in the WLC GUI?

  1. Select the interface mapped to VLAN 30 from the Interface/Interface Group drop-down list on the General tab.Answer
  2. B
    Specify VLAN 30 in the Helper IP Address field on the Advanced tab.
  3. C
    Enable 802.1Q Trunk Tagging under the Security Layer 2 configuration tab.
  4. D
    Change the AP Mode to FlexConnect and configure VLAN 30 on the Wireless General tab.

Answer

Select the interface mapped to VLAN 30 from the Interface/Interface Group drop-down list on the General tab.
When configuring client network access on a Cisco WLC via the GUI, binding a WLAN to a dynamic interface (which corresponds to a specific VLAN such as VLAN 30) is performed under the General tab using the Interface/Interface Group drop-down menu.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Navigate to the WLANs menu in the WLC GUI and open the target WLAN edit page.
The WLANs > Edit screen opens showing configuration tabs.
WLAN-specific parameters are managed within the WLAN edit view.
2
Locate the General tab settings.
Access profile parameters including Profile Name, SSID, Status, and Interface/Interface Group.
The General tab contains core WLAN settings including state and interface binding.
3
Select the desired dynamic interface bound to VLAN 30 from the Interface/Interface Group drop-down list.
The WLAN is associated with the selected dynamic interface.
Binding the interface maps wireless client traffic to the appropriate Layer 2 VLAN/subnet.
