Selected Answer: AE

To enable client profiling on a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) v8.2 and Cisco ISE, the following AP modes should be configured for full functionality: Local Mode: In Local Mode, APs forward all client traffic to the WLC for processing. This mode is essential for client profiling because the WLC can analyze and profile client traffic before forwarding it to the network. FlexConnect Mode: In FlexConnect Mode, APs can operate in a hybrid manner, forwarding traffic locally or to the WLC depending on the configuration. FlexConnect APs can still support client profiling by sending client data to the WLC for analysis, even when operating in standalone mode.

Why the Other Options Are Incorrect: B. Workgroup Bridge: Workgroup Bridge (WGB) mode is used to connect wired devices to a wireless network. It does not support client profiling because the WGB itself is treated as a single client, and individual wired devices behind it are not profiled. C. Standalone: In Standalone Mode, APs operate independently without a WLC. Since client profiling relies on the WLC to analyze traffic, this mode does not support profiling. D. Local Authentication: Local Authentication refers to the authentication method used by APs in FlexConnect mode. It is not an AP mode and does not directly impact client profiling.
