Why each option
This question asks for two true statements about the capabilities of wireless LAN controllers.
Wireless LAN controllers centralize the management of multiple access points, significantly simplifying tasks such as configuration, firmware updates, and security policy enforcement across a wireless network.
WLCs often incorporate integrated security features like firewalls and intrusion prevention, rather than relying solely on external firewalls for WLAN security.
WLCs are typically deployed in larger, enterprise-level networks to manage numerous access points and provide advanced features, making them less suitable for small, simple wireless networks.
While WLCs commonly offer GUI management over HTTP/HTTPS, they also support CLI and API-based configuration, so a GUI is not the exclusive method.
WLCs are designed to manage mobility policies, enabling seamless roaming and consistent application of user and device policies across the entire wireless system.
