   In a FlexConnect deployment, when an AP is configured for local switching, where does the AP bridge client data traffic?

   • AAt the core router, after the traffic is routed back to the controller
   • BAt the wireless LAN controller, after the traffic is sent over the CAPWAP tunnel
   • CAt the local network edge, directly on the FlexConnect AP
   • DAt the distribution layer switch, after the AP forwards the traffic over a trunk link

   A company wants to deploy FlexConnect APs at a branch office. The branch has a local internet connection, and the company wants to minimize WAN bandwidth usage for internet-bound traffic. However, the IT team needs to enforce security policies centrally for all traffic. Which switching mode should you choose for the internet-bound WLAN?

   • ALocal switching, because it allows the AP to bridge traffic directly to the local internet connection, reducing WAN usage.
   • BLocal switching with a backup central switching mode to enforce policies when the tunnel is up.
   • CCentral switching with local internet breakout enabled on the AP.
   • DCentral switching, because it tunnels all traffic to the WLC for policy enforcement, but it uses WAN bandwidth.

   Which statement correctly describes central switching in a FlexConnect deployment?

   • AClient data is encapsulated in CAPWAP and forwarded to the wireless LAN controller for bridging
   • BClient data is bridged locally at the AP onto the native VLAN of the branch switch
   • CClient data is routed directly by the AP using a static route to the internet
   • DClient data is sent to the controller only for authentication, then switched locally

   A FlexConnect AP is in connected mode with local switching. The WAN link becomes congested, and the CAPWAP tunnel remains up but experiences high latency. A client on a local-switched SSID reports slow performance when accessing a local server. What is the most likely cause?

   • AThe client's traffic is being tunneled to the WLC because the tunnel is up.
   • BThe AP is in connected mode, so it must send all traffic to the WLC.
   • CThe local switching configuration is incorrect, causing the AP to use central switching.
   • DThe AP is using a different VLAN for the local server than the client.

   A FlexConnect AP is deployed at a branch office. The AP is configured for standalone mode. The WAN link to the WLC is restored after an outage. What must happen for the AP to return to connected mode?

   • AThe WLC must be rebooted to accept the AP's connection.
   • BThe AP automatically re-establishes the CAPWAP tunnel and returns to connected mode.
   • CThe administrator must manually reboot the AP to force it to reconnect.
   • DThe AP must be reconfigured with a new controller IP address.
