How does CAPWAP communicate between an access point in local mode and a WLC?
Show answer
Answer: D
Explanation
the correct answer is option D: "The access point has the ability to link to any switch in the network, assuming connectivity to the WLC." The AP can be connected to any switch in the network, as long as the switch has connectivity to the WLC. The AP and the WLC exchange CAPWAP messages over IP, using UDP port 5246 or 5247, depending on whether the messages are encrypted.
