Correct Answer: AE
Layer 3 CAPWAP (Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points) discovery is a process where a lightweight access point (LWAP) discovers and connects to a Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) in a wireless network. This process involves the LWAP sending a Layer 3 broadcast message to discover the WLC.
To facilitate Layer 3 CAPWAP discovery for a lightweight AP in a LAN network segment, the following actions should be taken:
A. Utilize DHCP option 43: DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) option 43 is used to provide LWAPs with the IP address of the WLC. The WLC IP address is included in the DHCP option 43 field as a hexadecimal string. When the LWAP receives the DHCP response with the option 43 field, it uses the WLC IP address to establish a CAPWAP tunnel to the WLC.
E. Configure an ip helper-address on the router interface: An ip helper-address is used to forward broadcast packets to a specified destination IP address. In this case, the ip helper-address should be configured on the router interface that connects the LAN to the WLC management network. The ip helper-address should be set to the IP address of the WLC management interface. This allows the LWAP to send Layer 3 broadcast messages, which are then forwarded by the router to the WLC management interface.
