Which three statements about a FlexConnect AP are true?

When a FlexConnect AP is in the “local authentication, local switching” state, it handles client authentication and switches client data packets locally. This state is valid in standalone mode and connected mode.

Which three statements about a FlexConnect AP are true? (Choose three.)
A . In connected mode, the AP provides minimum information about the locally authenticated client to the controller. This information is not available to the controller: policy type, access VLAN, VLAN name, supported rates, encryption cipher.
B . In connected mode, the access point provides minimal information about the locally authenticated client to the controller.
However, this information is available to the controller, policy type, access VLAN, VLAN name, supported rates, encryption cipher.
C . Local authentication is useful where you cannot maintain a remote office setup of a minimum bandwidth of 128 kbps with the round-trip latency no greater than 100ms and the maximum transmission unit no smaller than 576 bytes.
D . Local authentication is useful where you cannot maintain a remote office setup of a minimum bandwidth of 128 kbps with the round-trip latency no greater than 150ms and the maximum transmission unit no smaller than 500 bytes.
E . Local authentication is connected mode does not require any WLAN configuration.
F . Local authentication can be enabled only on the WLAN of a FlexConnect AP that is in local switching mode.

Answer: ACF

Explanation:

In connected mode, the access point provides minimal information about the locally authenticated client to the controller.

The following information is not available to the controller:

C Policy type

C Access VLAN

C VLAN name

C Supported rates

C Encryption cipher

Local authentication is useful where you cannot maintain a remote office setup of a minimum bandwidth of 128 kbps with the round-trip latency no greater than 100 ms and the maximum transmission unit (MTU) no smaller than 500 bytes. In local authentication, the authentication capabilities are present in the access point itself. Local authentication reduces the latency requirements of the branch office.

Note Local authentication can only be enabled on the WLAN of a FlexConnect access point that is in local switching mode.
