Question No. 3
An engineer wants to upgrade the APs in a Cisco FlexConnect group. To accomplish this upgrade, the
FlexConnect AP Upgrade setting will be used. One AP of each model with the lowest MAC address in
the group must receive the upgrade directly from the controller. Which action accomplishes this
direct upgrade?

Option C seems right; splitting APs into different groups isolates upgrades per model.

A imo, removing APs from the group might force the controller to handle upgrades individually, so the one with the lowest MAC could get upgraded directly. It’s a simpler way to isolate the APs for upgrade control.

I’m thinking option C could make sense too. If you assign the master APs to different groups, then each group’s lowest MAC AP would be the master by default, letting those specific APs get upgraded directly. That way, you’re explicitly controlling which AP leads the upgrade without messing with rebooting or removing APs from groups. Does anyone know if having multiple groups with one master AP each is supported for this kind of upgrade scenario? Feels like a cleaner way to pick the right APs without relying on defaults.

Guessing D here since leaving no master AP set could force the controller to pick the lowest MAC AP automatically for the direct upgrade, matching the requirement without extra configuration.

A imo, removing APs from the group might force the controller to treat them individually, making sure the lowest MAC APs get upgraded directly without master AP interference.

Option C makes sense because assigning master APs to different groups would prevent one AP from dominating the upgrade and force direct upgrades to each lowest MAC AP in their group.

D Do not set any master APs for direct upgrade.
