Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 444

Which function does a fabric wireless LAN controller perform in a Cisco SD-Access deployment?

Answer options

• A. manages fabric-enabled APs and forwards client registration and roaming information to the Control Plane Node
• B. coordinates configuration of autonomous nonfabric access points within the fabric
• C. performs the assurance engine role for both wired and wireless clients
• D. is dedicated to onboard clients in fabric-enabled and nonfabric-enabled APs within the fabric

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the fabric wireless LAN controller is responsible for managing fabric-enabled access points and facilitating the communication of client registration and roaming data to the Control Plane Node. Option B is incorrect as it refers to nonfabric access points which are not managed by the fabric controller. Option C is not accurate because the assurance engine role is broader and does not specifically pertain to the functions of the wireless LAN controller. Option D is misleading as it implies a function that is not the primary responsibility of the fabric wireless LAN controller.
