A company has a WLC with multiple SSIDs. The marketing team uses SSID 'MKT' and the engineering team uses SSID 'ENG'. Both SSIDs are on different VLANs. The mDNS gateway is enabled globally. The mDNS profile 'CORP' includes AirPlay and AirPrint. The 'MKT' policy profile has the 'CORP' profile bound, but the 'ENG' policy profile does not have any mDNS profile bound. Users on 'ENG' report that they cannot discover any AirPrint printers, even though printers are on the same VLAN as the 'ENG' SSID. What is the most likely cause?

The printers are not on the same VLAN as the 'ENG' SSID.

The 'ENG' policy profile does not have an mDNS profile bound, so mDNS is not processed for that SSID.

The 'CORP' profile does not include the printer's service type.

The mDNS gateway is not enabled on the 'ENG' SSID.

What is the purpose of mDNS service filtering on a WLC?

To prioritize mDNS traffic over other traffic

To control which mDNS services are advertised or accessible to clients

To block all multicast traffic on the wireless network

To encrypt mDNS messages between clients

A network administrator is explaining to management why mDNS is needed in their wireless network. The network has multiple VLANs for different departments. Which statement accurately describes the primary benefit of implementing an mDNS gateway?

It eliminates the need for any multicast routing on the network.

It allows clients on different VLANs to discover services without requiring a central DNS server.

It provides a central repository for all DNS records in the enterprise.

It reduces multicast traffic by compressing mDNS packets.

A small office has a single WLC and two SSIDs: one for employees and one for guests. Employees need to discover a network printer that is connected to the wired LAN on a different subnet. The WLC is currently running with default mDNS settings. What is the first step to enable mDNS-based discovery of the printer for employees?

Enable mDNS snooping globally on the WLC.

Enable the mDNS gateway on the WLC.

Create an mDNS profile and add the printer's service type.

Configure the printer with a static IP address on the employee VLAN.

What is the primary purpose of multicast DNS (mDNS) in an enterprise wireless network?

To route multicast traffic between different VLANs

To enable devices on the same link to discover each other's services without a central DNS server

To provide secure authentication for wireless clients

To resolve hostnames to IP addresses using a central DNS server
