Explanation

Wireless LAN architectures differ fundamentally in how they handle traffic between access points and controllers. Layer 2 LWAPP uses EtherType 0xBBBB to encapsulate traffic within Ethernet frames, facilitating Layer 2 connectivity and only forwarding IP EtherType frames, making it suitable for same-subnet deployments. Layer 3 LWAPP requires IP addresses on both the AP and WLC, uses UDP packets for tunneling, and supports UDP/UDP Lite for IPv6, enabling communication across routed networks.
