1. What are mping and eping used for from the wlc cli
-150ms
clients are load ballanced between them - this can not be configured otherwise.
Clients send info re: previously associated aps to current ap - so it can use this information to inform current clients about neighboring aps. Requires CCXv2
mping = tests intercontroller control traffic. eping = tests intercontroller data traffic (EoIP)
2. Authentication types used by SNMPv3
is provided to clients as they associate - including neighbor ap info like channel - rssi etc.

6. Briefly describe peap
Inter Access Point Protocol uses UDP between aps to exchange information about new aps (announce) in the area and handoffs that have occurred when client roams
switchport mode access - dot1x pae authenticator - dot1x port-control auto
802.11i - 802.11r - 802.11w & 802.11n
uses TLS to secure other eap methods like certs - user/pass - smart cards. Identifies itself to client with certificate. Utilizes: fast reconnect (faster roaming w/ key caching) and server authentication
7. How is the CAPWAP tunnel between AP & WLC encrypted
802.11w

8. IAPP roaming protocol
switchport mode access - dot1x pae authenticator - dot1x port-control auto
WLC generates a Message Integrity Check Information Element (MIC IE) - which includes a sequence # - and aps add it to each mgmt frame. Clients ignore this IE - as they do not understand it.
Inter Access Point Protocol uses UDP between aps to exchange information about new aps (announce) in the area and handoffs that have occurred when client roams
