Question

You must use Cisco AVC on a WLC to prevent users from accessing a social media website. Which action do you configure in a rule?

Options

Adrop
Brate-limit
Cdeny
Dmark

Explanation

Cisco AVC on the WLC uses the 'drop' action to completely block application traffic, making it the correct choice for preventing access to a social media website.

Common mistakes.

B. The 'rate-limit' action throttles bandwidth for the matched application rather than blocking it, meaning users would still reach the social media site at a reduced speed.
C. 'Deny' is not a valid configurable action in Cisco AVC policy rules on the WLC - the correct term for blocking application traffic in AVC is 'drop', not 'deny'.
D. The 'mark' action re-marks the DSCP or QoS tag on matched application traffic for prioritization or deprioritization purposes and does not prevent access to the application.
