Implementing Cisco Enterprise Wireless Networks (ENWLSI) — Question 51

On a branch office deployment, it has been noted that if the FlexConnect AP is in standalone mode and loses connection to the WLC, all clients are disconnected, and the SSID is no longer advertised. Considering that FlexConnect local switching is enabled, which setting is causing this behavior?

Answer options

• A. ISE NAC is enabled
• B. 802.11r Fast Transition is enabled
• C. Client Exclusion is enabled
• D. FlexConnect Local Auth is disabled

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because when ISE NAC is enabled, it can enforce policies that may lead to disconnection of clients if the connection to the WLC is lost. Option B, 802.11r Fast Transition, deals with fast roaming and does not cause disconnections in this scenario. Option C, Client Exclusion, refers to blocking certain clients but does not affect the overall SSID advertisement. Option D, while related to authentication, does not directly cause the SSID to stop being advertised.
