Explanation

Autonomous Wireless architecture means each access point (AP) operates as a standalone, self-sufficient unit - no centralized controller is involved. This directly explains why B (limited coordination between APs) is correct: without a controller orchestrating them, APs have minimal inter-AP communication. C (individual management) is correct because each AP must be configured and managed separately, one at a time.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (high scalability) is actually a weakness of autonomous architecture - managing hundreds of APs individually is operationally expensive and difficult to scale.
• D (centralized control) is the hallmark of controller-based (not autonomous) architectures, such as those using a Cisco WLC.
• E (support for high amounts of data traffic) is not a defining feature of autonomous wireless; controller-based and mesh architectures are better suited for high-throughput demands.

Memory tip: Think of "autonomous" like a lone wolf - it acts alone (individual management) and rarely coordinates with the pack (limited inter-AP coordination). Anything suggesting teamwork or scale (centralized control, high scalability) belongs to the controller-based architecture, not the lone-wolf autonomous one.
