An IT administrator deploys Cisco 2802i APs in all office locations, including main campus and...

In a FlexConnect deployment, enabling FlexConnect Local Switching allows branch office APs to map client traffic directly onto the local LAN, bypassing the need to tunnel all traffic back to the WLC at the main campus. This is essential for corporate devices at branch offices to access local resources efficiently and to be mapped to the correct VLANs according to their VLAN tag ID and WLAN. This setting is not relevant for APs in Local mode at the main campus, as they already switch traffic locally by default.
