Explanation

When running physical cables (Ethernet) to access points is not feasible or cost-effective, wireless backhaul options are used instead. Bridge mode (A) allows APs to form a wireless point-to-point or point-to-multipoint connection between buildings or locations, eliminating the need for a physical cable run entirely. FlexConnect mode (D), formerly known as HREAP, allows APs to switch data traffic locally without relying on a continuous physical connection back to the WLC, making it suitable for remote/branch sites where running cable to a central WLC is impractical. Sniffer mode is for packet capture, local mode requires a direct wired connection, and Flex+Bridge is a valid mode but was not listed among the correct answers for this scenario.
