Why each option

Cisco Hyperlocation is the specific feature designed for high-accuracy asset and client location tracking within a WLAN infrastructure.

AFast roaming

Fast roaming (802.11r/k/v) minimizes client re-association time when moving between APs and has no role in determining the physical location of an asset.

BHyperlocationCorrect

Cisco Hyperlocation leverages antenna arrays on compatible APs and angle-of-arrival (AoA) techniques combined with the Cisco CMX or DNA Spaces location engine to achieve sub-meter location accuracy. Standard RSSI-based location typically delivers 5-15 meter accuracy, while Hyperlocation dramatically improves this for real-time asset tracking use cases. It is the purpose-built Cisco solution for location services in enterprise WLANs.

CDFS

Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) is a regulatory mechanism that enables APs to vacate 5 GHz channels when radar is detected and is entirely unrelated to location tracking.

DBand steering

Band steering is an RF management technique that encourages dual-band clients to use the 5 GHz band, not a location or tracking feature.
