CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate — Question 525

Which mode must be set for Aps to communicate to a Wireless LAN Controller using the Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) protocol?

Answer options

• A. route
• B. bridge
• C. lightweight
• D. autonomous

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, lightweight, as this mode allows Access Points to communicate with a Wireless LAN Controller over the CAPWAP protocol. The other modes, such as autonomous, do not support this centralized management and control mechanism, while route and bridge modes are not relevant for CAPWAP communications.
