Refer to the exhibit.
Which protocol establishes an optimal path to the root in a wireless mesh network?
A.
Adaptive Wireless Path (AWP)
B.
WLAN Quality of Service (WQoS)
C.
Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP)
D.
802.1Q WLAN trunking protocol
E.
Layer 2 Roaming (IAPP)
Explanation:
Mesh networks are scalable outdoor networks that continuously communicate with each
other to determine link paths. If a link is degraded, the AP will determine whether a better
path exists and will route traffic through a more optimal node.Intelligent wireless routing is provided by the patent-pending Adaptive Wireless Path (AWP)
protocol. This enables each AP to identify its neighbors and intelligently choose the optimal
path to the wired network by calculating the cost of each path in terms of signal strength and
the number of hops required to get to a controller.
