What is the main benefit of using a wireless LAN controller (WLC) in a lightweight WLAN architecture?

It provides centralized management and configuration for multiple access points

It allows APs to operate without any network connectivity

It eliminates the need for any access points in the network

It increases the raw data rate of each wireless client

A technician is setting up a wireless network in a warehouse. The technician installs an access point (AP) and configures it with a service set identifier (SSID) and a pre-shared key (PSK). What is the primary purpose of the SSID in this configuration?

To route traffic between the wireless and wired networks

To encrypt data transmitted over the wireless network

To assign IP addresses to wireless clients

To uniquely identify the wireless network to clients
