A network engineer observes a spike in controller CPU overhead and overall network utilization after multicast is enabled on a controller with 500 APs. Which feature connects the issue?

The correct answer is D. unicast AP multicast mode. Enabling unicast AP multicast mode can correct the issue of increased controller CPU overhead and overall network utilization after multicast is enabled. This mode allows the controller to send multicast traffic to the APs as unicast, which is more efficient for the wireless medi

Explanation

Enabling unicast AP multicast mode can correct the issue of increased controller CPU overhead and overall network utilization after multicast is enabled. This mode allows the controller to send multicast traffic to the APs as unicast, which is more efficient for the wireless medium and reduces the load on the controller's CPU.
