300-365 · Question #88

An engineer has deployed a WLAN in a high-density auditorium and expects the number of clients to grow. Which WLC configuration can be used to increase the IP space without any service disruptions?

The correct answer is B. interface group. Interface groups on a WLC bundle multiple dynamic interfaces together, allowing the controller to assign IPs from multiple subnets/VLANs to clients without reconfiguring existing WLANs.

Why each option

Interface groups on a WLC bundle multiple dynamic interfaces together, allowing the controller to assign IPs from multiple subnets/VLANs to clients without reconfiguring existing WLANs.

Adynamic interface

A dynamic interface maps a single VLAN to a single subnet, so adding one does not expand capacity unless the WLAN is reconfigured to use it, which would cause disruption.

Binterface groupCorrect

An interface group is a collection of dynamic interfaces that the WLC can use to serve a single WLAN, effectively pooling multiple subnets. When one subnet's address space is exhausted, the WLC automatically assigns addresses from another interface in the group. This allows IP space to scale incrementally without modifying the WLAN configuration or causing client disruptions.

CAP group

AP groups control which WLANs are broadcast by a set of APs and do not affect IP address space allocation.

DRF group

An RF group coordinates transmit power and channel assignments among controllers and has no relationship to IP addressing.
