Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSD) — Question 139

An engineer is working for a manufacturing company that has a centralized deployment model. Guests at headquarters need wireless access for presentations, demonstrations, and sharing of information. The engineer must provide external users with secure guest access by connecting to anchor controllers on the DMZ. Auto-Anchor Mobility has been selected in the mobility group to accomplish it. Both anchors are configured as part of the mobility group for HQ. Which design approach ensures that clients connect to the primary controller first and are pushed to the secondary if the primary fails?

Answer options

• A. Set the Anchor priority for the primary controller to 1.
• B. Set the Anchor priority for the secondary controller to 1.
• C. Configure ECMP but weigh the cost to be higher to go to the primary.
• D. Configure ECMP but weigh the cost to be higher to go to the secondary.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Setting the Anchor priority for the primary controller to 1 ensures that it is the preferred connection point for clients. If the primary controller fails, clients will then be redirected to the secondary controller. The other options do not prioritize the primary correctly or misconfigure the ECMP settings, leading to potential connectivity issues.
