D.

Answers
D.

An AP has Site Survey mode enabled.

Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

If a Meraki Access Point does not have a configuration from the Meraki Cloud Controller it will instead broadcast a default SSID of 'Meraki-Scanning.'

vs

<SSID_name>-scanning

Cause: Similar to 'bad-gateway', an AP is unable to connect to its default gateway.

https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Other_Topics/Troubleshooting_local_connection_issues_using_default_SSID_on_MR_Access_Points

This is because the AP is broadcasting the default SSID ''meraki-scanning'' which is only broadcast when the AP has never connected to the Meraki Cloud Controller1.
