Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 799

Which port is required to allow APs to join a WLC when directed broadcasts are used on a Cisco IOS switch?

Answer options

• A. UDP 5246
• B. TCP 5246
• C. TCP 5247
• D. UDP 5247

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, UDP 5246, because this port is specifically used for CAPWAP control messages, allowing APs to communicate with the WLC. The other options, B, C, and D, either refer to different protocols (TCP) or incorrect port numbers for the same function, which do not facilitate the necessary communication for APs using directed broadcasts.
