Yeah, standalone keeps them operational during WAN failures.

Wait, are you sure? I thought disconnected was an option.

Standalone is the right choice here, no doubt!

Definitely needs to be standalone mode.

I'm leaning towards "connected" because it sounds like the APs would still need to communicate, but that doesn't fit the WAN failure scenario.

I feel like "disconnected" could be the right choice, but I also recall some practice questions where "standalone" was mentioned in similar contexts.

I remember something about "lightweight" mode needing a controller, so that can't be right if the tunnel is down.

I think the answer might be "standalone" since it allows APs to operate independently, but I'm not entirely sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The requirement to keep the APs operational even with a WAN failure is throwing me off. I'll need to review my notes on Cisco WLAN deployment modes to make the best guess here.

This is a good question to test our understanding of Cisco WLAN deployment. I'll carefully consider each option and try to eliminate the ones that don't fit the requirement. I'm leaning towards option B, but I want to double-check my reasoning.

Okay, I think I've got it. The question is asking about the operational mode that needs to be configured on the APs to ensure they remain up even if the WAN connection to headquarters fails. I'm going to go with option B, standalone.

This seems like a straightforward question about Cisco WLAN deployment. I'm pretty confident I know the answer, but I'll double-check the options just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the wording here. I need to make sure I understand the requirement that the APs remain operational even if the CAPWAP tunnel is down. Let me think this through carefully.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. I thought XSLT was more for bridging technology protocols, but I could be wrong. I'll have to think this through a bit more.

Option B, standalone, for sure. Gotta keep those APs running, even if the control plane is taking a coffee break. Can't have the branch offices going dark, that's just bad for business.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm hoping the answer isn't 'disconnect all the APs and send them on vacation until the WAN is back up.' That would be a bit extreme, even for a networking exam.

I'm going with B, standalone. Sounds like the APs need to be able to function independently, like little networking heroes saving the day when the WAN goes down.

Standalone mode, that's the one! This must be a common issue in Cisco WLAN deployments, so the engineers have probably got a good solution for it.

Hmm, the WAN failure scenario sounds like a tricky one. I'm thinking option B, standalone, might be the way to go since it allows the APs to keep operating even if the CAPWAP tunnel is down.
