Question

When there are two ACs and multiple APs in the WLAN network, to configure the network in master- backup mode, half of the APs plan AC1 as the main AC and AC2 as the backup AC, and the other half of the APs plan AC2 as the main AC and AC1 as the backup AC. AC, thereby improving AC resource utilization.

Explanation

A is correct because this describes a valid load-balancing strategy within a master-backup WLAN architecture. By splitting AP associations so half treat AC1 as primary and half treat AC2 as primary, both controllers handle active traffic simultaneously rather than one sitting idle as a cold standby - this is often called "active-active with failover" or "dual-homed load sharing."

B is incorrect because the statement is factually accurate; the described configuration is a standard Huawei (and industry-common) approach to prevent AC resource waste in dual-AC deployments.

Memory tip: Think of it like two managers splitting a team - each manages half the staff normally, but can take over the other's staff if one manager is unavailable. Neither manager is idle; both are productive. That's the key distinction from a simple hot-standby setup where one AC does nothing until the other fails.
