In a centralized Cisco wireless deployment operating under the split-MAC architecture, operational responsibilities are divided between the Lightweight Access Point (AP) and the Wireless LAN Controller (WLC). Which two functions are performed directly by the Lightweight AP? (Select two options.)
- Real-time 802.11 frame transmission and acknowledgment generationCevap
- 802.11 MAC-layer frame encryption and decryptionCevap
- C802.11 client authentication processing and state management
- DDynamic channel allocation and transmit power control via Radio Resource Management (RRM)
Cevap
The two functions performed directly by the Lightweight AP are real-time 802.11 frame transmission and acknowledgment generation, and 802.11 MAC-layer frame encryption and decryption.
In a Cisco split-MAC wireless architecture, time-sensitive real-time 802.11 MAC functions are offloaded to the Lightweight AP. These include frame transmissions, ACK generation, beaconing, probe responses, and hardware-based wireless encryption/decryption. This ensures low latency and strict adherence to 802.11 timing rules.
