When the LAG configuration is updated on a Cisco WLC, which additional task must be performed when changes are complete?
The correct answer is A. Reboot the WLC.. Any changes to the Link Aggregation Group (LAG) configuration on a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) require a system reboot for the changes to take effect.

Why each option
Any changes to the Link Aggregation Group (LAG) configuration on a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) require a system reboot for the changes to take effect.
Cisco WLCs are architected such that significant network interface configuration changes, particularly those involving LAG, necessitate a full system reboot to properly initialize the new port bundling and forwarding logic.
Flushing MAC addresses from the WLC is not the specific action required to apply a LAG configuration change; a reboot is needed for the underlying network interface re-initialization.
Simply re-enabling WLC interfaces is insufficient for applying LAG configuration changes; the system requires a full reboot to properly re-initialize the aggregated link.
Re-associating the WLC with access points is a consequence of a WLC reboot or network interruption, but it is not the direct action needed to apply a LAG configuration change.
