What is a characteristic of intracontroller roaming?

Intracontroller roaming refers to the scenario where a wireless client moves from one access point (AP) to another within the same wireless LAN controller (WLC) environment. One of the key characteristics of this process is that the client database entry is updated with the new AP information. When a client roams to a new AP, the WLC ensures that the client’s state is maintained and updated across the network, allowing for a seamless transition without any interruption in service.

As a result, this characteristic is vital for maintaining the user's session and providing continuous connectivity, which includes updating details such as signal strength and the specific AP to which the client is now associated. This seamless update is part of how intracontroller roaming enhances the overall user experience in a wireless network by minimizing disruption and maintaining performance.

In contrast, other options reflect characteristics not supported by intracontroller roaming, such as not updating the client database, which would lead to disconnection and service interruption, or requiring anchor entries and transitioning the client to a new WLC, both of which are associated with inter-controller roaming scenarios instead.
