In the leader AP networking architecture, the leader AP functions as a WAC and uses the CAPWAP protocol to uniformly manage and configure Fit APs.

In Huawei’s Leader-AP (also called “Master-AP”) architecture, one AP assumes Wireless Access Controller functions and manages other Fit APs via the CAPWAP tunnelling protocol, providing centralized configuration, firmware delivery, and forwarding policy control—identical to a small-scale WAC. Why Incorrect Option is Wrong: The only alternative (False) would deny the use of CAPWAP or the controller role, contradicting Huawei’s documented Leader-AP design.
