A network engineer is experiencing issues enabling LAG on the WLC. Which four characteristics should be validated to ensure LAG configuration? (Choose four.)

The correct answer is A. All ports participate in the LAG by default when LAG is enabled on the controller, y D. Multiple untagged interfaces to the same port are not allowed. E. EtherChannel must be configured for mode "on" on the switch. F. Only one functional physical port is needed to continue to pass traffic. Enabling LAG on a Cisco WLC requires validating specific behaviors on both the controller and the connected switch to ensure correct bundle formation and operation.

Why each option

Enabling LAG on a Cisco WLC requires validating specific behaviors on both the controller and the connected switch to ensure correct bundle formation and operation.

AAll ports participate in the LAG by default when LAG is enabled on the controller, yCorrect

When LAG is enabled on the WLC, all physical ports automatically join the LAG bundle by default without requiring individual port-level configuration on the controller.

BDynamic interfaces and management are moved to port 1

When LAG is enabled, all WLC interfaces are associated with the logical LAG bundle rather than being moved specifically to port 1; there is no designated anchor port in a WLC LAG configuration.

CPrimary and secondary ports are needed for each interface.

Primary and secondary port assignments describe the WLC port redundancy feature, which is a separate mechanism from LAG; LAG does not use primary or secondary port designations per interface.

DMultiple untagged interfaces to the same port are not allowed.Correct

Multiple untagged interfaces cannot be mapped to the same port under LAG because each physical port supports only one native (untagged) VLAN, and assigning multiple untagged interfaces would create a configuration conflict.

EEtherChannel must be configured for mode "on" on the switch.Correct

The switch-side EtherChannel must be statically configured as mode 'on' because the Cisco WLC does not support LACP or PAgP negotiation; dynamic EtherChannel modes will prevent the bundle from forming.

FOnly one functional physical port is needed to continue to pass traffic.Correct

LAG provides physical redundancy so that if all but one port fail, the single remaining functional port continues to pass traffic for all WLC interfaces without interruption.

GThe WLC does not need to be rebooted to enable the LAG configuration.

The WLC requires a reboot after LAG is enabled for the configuration change to take effect; LAG cannot be activated on a running controller without a reboot.
