WLC (Wireless LAN Controller). What kind of message is transmitted?

A.
The lightweight access point will send Layer 2 and Layer 3 Lightweight Access Point
(LWAPP) mode discovery request messages at the same time.

B.
The lightweight access point will send Layer 3 Lightweight Access Point (LWAPP)
mode discovery request messages only.

C.
The lightweight access point will send Layer 2 Lightweight Access Point (LWAPP)
mode discovery request messages. If the attempt fails, the LAP will try Layer 3 LWAPP WLC
discovery.

D.
The lightweight access point will send Layer 2 Lightweight Access Point (LWAPP)
mode discovery request messages only.

Explanation:
This procedure for a LAP to register with a WLC is:
The LAP issues a DHCP request to a DHCP server in order to get an IP address, unless an
assignment was made previously with a static IP address.
If Layer 2 LWAPP mode is supported on the LAP, the LAP broadcasts an LWAPP discovery
message in a Layer 2 LWAPP frame. Any WLC that is connected to the network and that is
configured for Layer 2 LWAPP mode responds with a Layer 2 discovery response. If the LAP
does not support Layer 2 mode, or if the WLC or the LAP fails to receive an LWAPP
discovery response to the Layer 2 LWAPP discovery message broadcast, the LAP proceeds
to step 3.
If step 1 fails, or if the LAP or the WLC does not support Layer 2 LWAPP mode, the LAP
attempts a Layer 3 LWAPP WLC discovery.
If step 3 fails, the LAP resets and returns to step 1.
