For a network supporting both data and voice over wireless, two key Cisco design recommendations apply. First, the 5 GHz radio band is recommended for voice over wireless due to its wider channel bandwidths, allowing for higher data rates and better quality of service for latency-sensitive applications. 40 MHz channels in the 5 GHz band provide significantly higher throughput than 20 MHz channels in 2.4 GHz, making Option B correct for the bandwidth reason stated. Second, setting the cell boundary to -67 dBm ensures sufficient signal strength for reliable voice communication at the cell edge, which is the Cisco standard threshold for VoWLAN coverage. Options C and E are partially correct (24 non-overlapping channels is accurate, 15-20% overlap is standard) but B and D are the primary Cisco recommendations that define the design targets for a predictive survey supporting voice.

In a Cisco Catalyst 9800 SSO deployment using Link Aggregation Group (LAG) for network interface redundancy, the SSO pair — WLC1 (active) and WLC2 (standby) — must both have their physical interfaces connected to the network infrastructure as part of the LAG bundle. LAG on the 9800 in an SSO configuration is implemented as a multi-chassis LAG across both the active and standby controllers. This means both WLC1 and WLC2 contribute physical member links to the port channel, and the connected switches must have LACP or PAgP bundle members from both controllers in the same port channel group. When an SSO failover occurs — WLC1 fails and WLC2 takes over as active — the LAG remains operational because WLC2 ' s physical links are already established members of the bundle and continue forwarding traffic without any link renegotiation. If only WLC1 had LAG connectivity and WLC2 had independent links, an SSO failover would cause a LAG topology change requiring re-convergence, introducing downtime. WLC3 is a separate N+1 backup controller joined via a mobility tunnel — not part of the SSO pair and its LAG configuration is independent.

In Cisco ' s guest anchor WLC deployment model, multiple anchor controllers can be configured in a DMZ to provide redundancy for guest WLAN traffic. The anchor priority value determines which anchor controller is preferred for establishing the guest mobility tunnel from the foreign WLC. Cisco ' s anchor priority system assigns the highest preference to the lowest numerical priority value. Priority 1 is the highest priority, meaning the foreign WLC will prefer Anchor1 when establishing the CAPWAP mobility tunnel for anchoring guest client traffic. Priority 2 would be assigned to Anchor2, and Priority 3 to Anchor3, creating a deterministic failover hierarchy. If Anchor1 becomes unreachable, the foreign controller automatically falls over to Anchor2, then to Anchor3. Priority 0 is not a valid anchor priority value in the Cisco WLC configuration. This design pattern is critical for enterprise guest deployments where DMZ anchor redundancy must be maintained without manual intervention.

Raising the minimum data rate to 24 Mbps reduces the effective coverage range of each AP because clients at the cell edge operating at low data rates are effectively excluded from the cell. This shrinks cell size, reducing channel overlap between neighboring APs on the same channel. Using directional antennas limits the coverage area of some APs by focusing RF energy in specific directions rather than radiating omnidirectionally, which directly reduces the lateral overlap between adjacent APs. Increasing AP transmit power (Option B) would worsen overlap, not reduce it. Allowing UNII-2e channels (Option C) provides more channel options but does not reduce the physical cell overlap — it only provides more channels to avoid co-channel interference. Power saving mode (Option E) is a client-side power management feature unrelated to AP cell sizing during a survey.
