Why each option

Cisco Mobility Express is a wireless deployment solution that allows controller functionality to run on an access point, supporting Layer 2 roaming in a distributed architecture.

Aautonomous mode

Autonomous mode access points are independently configured and managed, providing no centralized control or support for seamless Layer 2 roaming between them without external intervention.

Bfabric

Wireless fabric solutions like Cisco SD-Access are centralized, controller-based architectures that rely on network infrastructure for advanced services and roaming, not a controller-less model.

Cunified

Unified wireless deployments are the traditional controller-based model where a dedicated physical Wireless LAN Controller manages all access points and client roaming.

DCisco Mobility ExpressCorrect

Cisco Mobility Express embeds the Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) functionality into a qualifying access point, enabling it to manage other APs locally and supporting Layer 2 roaming between APs in a FlexConnect-like setup without a separate physical controller.
