You are getting the following error message.
Which reason for this issue is true?

A . The parent AP MAC address has not been defined.
B . Repeater made only works between Cisco access points.
C . When repeater mode is used, unicast-flooding must be enabled to allow Aironet IE communications.
D . “dot11 extension aironet” is missing under the interface Dot11Radio0 interface.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Repeaters and bridges have to be the same manufacturer because there are some protocols that other manufacturers won’t accept. So Cisco Aironet to Cisco Aironet will work. Cisco Aironet to Cisco Linksys (and other manufacturers) will NOT workReference:
