H12-311_V3.0 · Question #104
According to the network architecture between the AP and the AC, the networking methods can be divided into two-layer networking methods and three-layer networking methods.
The correct answer is A. True. Option A is correct because the relationship between Access Points (APs) and the Access Controller (AC) defines whether the network uses a two-layer or three-layer architecture. In two-layer networking, the AP and AC reside within the same Layer 2 broadcast domain, meaning no…

Explanation
Option A is correct because the relationship between Access Points (APs) and the Access Controller (AC) defines whether the network uses a two-layer or three-layer architecture. In two-layer networking, the AP and AC reside within the same Layer 2 broadcast domain, meaning no routing is required between them. In three-layer networking, at least one Layer 3 router separates the AP from the AC, requiring IP routing for communication and tunnel establishment between the two devices. Option B is wrong because this two-tier classification is a well-established and documented standard in enterprise WLAN design, not a false premise.
Memory tip: Think of "layers" as how many network tiers sit between the AP and the AC - same subnet means two-layer, routed network means three-layer.
