Designing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSD) — Question 38

Multiple WLCs are implemented in a high-availability configuration in a mobility group. APs are deployed with only a primary controller assigned. By default, which mobility group member controller do the orphaned APs join in the event of a failed controller?

Answer options

• A. controller with the most available AP free license capacity
• B. controller with the lowest percent of associated APs per license capacity
• C. controller with the least CPU utilization over the last reporting period
• D. controller with the least number of associated APs

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because orphaned APs will join the controller that has the most available AP free license capacity to ensure optimal resource utilization. The other options do not prioritize license capacity, which is critical for accommodating additional APs during a controller failure.
