The correct answer is D. Cisco FlexConnect. When using CCKM at remote branches connected via low-bandwidth VPN, FlexConnect groups must be configured to enable key caching locally so clients can roam without re-authenticating over the WAN.
Question

Why each option
When using CCKM at remote branches connected via low-bandwidth VPN, FlexConnect groups must be configured to enable key caching locally so clients can roam without re-authenticating over the WAN.
RF groups are used for radio resource management and dynamic channel/power assignment, not for key management or roaming optimization.
AP groups are used to apply WLAN and configuration policies to sets of APs, but do not provide CCKM key caching for roaming in FlexConnect deployments.
Interface groups bundle WLC interfaces for load balancing client assignments and are unrelated to key management or roaming.
Cisco FlexConnect groups allow APs at a remote site to share CCKM key caches among themselves, enabling fast secure roaming without sending re-authentication traffic across the low-bandwidth VPN link back to the WLC.
