A network engineer is working with a user to troubleshoot connectivity of a laptop to a lightweight AP. The user has rebooted the laptop, and the network engineer is checking the connection status of the client from the WLC GUI. The client connection status dot is showing black on the DHCP step, just as it did before the reboot. What can the network engineer learn from this output?
- The DHCP server is down.
- The laptop has successfully received IP addressing information or has been statically configured.
- The WLC controller has not received client IP addressing information from the DHCP server.
- The switch to which the AP connects needs an IP helper address configured.
- The client is configured for a static IP address.
Explanation: The client connection status on the WLC GUI shows a dot for particular steps used by a client when joining a wireless network. The dot can be black if a step is unsuccessful and green if the step is successful. The DHCP step shows whether the WLC has learned the client IP address from a DHCP server.
