Explanation
In WLAN configuration, Management, Service, and User VLANs each serve a distinct and necessary role: the Management VLAN carries control traffic between Access Points (APs) and the wireless controller (AC); the Service VLAN carries the actual user data forwarded from APs to the network; and the User VLAN is what gets assigned to wireless clients to segment them by group, SSID, or role.
Authentication VLAN (D) is incorrect because authentication in WLAN is a process handled by protocols like 802.1X and RADIUS - it is not a defined VLAN type in standard WLAN architecture. Authentication determines which VLAN a user gets placed into, but it is not itself a VLAN category.
Memory tip: Think MSU - Manage the infrastructure, Send the service data, User gets segmented. Authentication is the gatekeeper, not a VLAN itself.
