CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 1267

How is a configuration change made to a wireless AP in lightweight mode?

Answer options

• A. SSH connection to the management IP of the AP
• B. CAPWAP/LWAPP connection via the parent WLC
• C. EoIP connection via the parent WLC
• D. HTTPS connection directly to the out-of-band address of the AP

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct method for making configuration changes to a lightweight AP is through a CAPWAP/LWAPP connection via the parent WLC, as this allows centralized management. The other options, such as SSH and HTTPS connections, are not applicable for lightweight APs, which rely on the WLC for configuration and control.
