  1. Wireless LAN controllerCevap
  2. B
    Layer 2 unmanaged switch
  3. C
    DHCP server
  4. D
    Standalone wireless repeater

Cevap

A wireless LAN controller provides centralized configuration, monitoring, and management capabilities for lightweight access points in an enterprise environment.
A wireless LAN controller (WLC) is a dedicated network appliance used in enterprise environments to centrally configure, control, and manage multiple lightweight wireless access points (LWAPs). It streamlines administration by allowing security settings, RF channels, and SSID policies to be pushed to all managed APs simultaneously.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the operational requirement described in the scenario
The scenario calls for central management and configuration deployment across multiple lightweight access points.
Lightweight access points (LWAPs) offload control and management functions to a centralized appliance.
2
Evaluate the capabilities of network hardware devices against this requirement
A wireless LAN controller (WLC) is specifically designed to manage LWAP configurations, firmware, and security policies centrally.
Other networking devices handle frame switching, IP allocation, or basic signal repeating rather than wireless control plane centralization.
