C is correct On Chap 15 "Captive Portal Authentication" of learning book "Aruba Certified Switching Professionnal": "Since captive portal is implemented with MAC Authentication and RADIUS COA on the AOS-CX switches, only MAC authentication needs to be enabled on the port. Optionnally, you can enable both 802.1x and MAC-auth if you are not sure what type of authentication will be necessary on a switch"
