Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is creating an ACL to restrict some traffic to the WLC CPU. Which selection must be made from the direction drop-down list?

The correct answer is A. It must be Inbound because traffic goes to the WLC. When configuring an Access Control List (ACL) to restrict traffic to the Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) CPU, the direction of the traffic is crucial. Since the ACL is meant to control traffic that is destined for the WLC CPU, it should be set as "Inbound". This means that any…

Options

  • AIt must be Inbound because traffic goes to the WLC.
  • BPacket direction has no significance; it is always Any.
  • CIt must be Outbound because it is traffic that is generated from the WLC.
  • DTo have the complete list of options, the CPU ACL must be created only by the CLI.

Explanation

When configuring an Access Control List (ACL) to restrict traffic to the Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) CPU, the direction of the traffic is crucial. Since the ACL is meant to control traffic that is destined for the WLC CPU, it should be set as "Inbound". This means that any rules applied within this ACL will affect incoming traffic towards the WLC, which is necessary when aiming to restrict certain types of traffic from reaching and potentially overwhelming the controller's processing capabilities.
