In this scenario, the question is asking about how to configure the MAP (Mobility Access Point) authorization using an external AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) server for the indoor MAP 1260 with a specific Ethernet MAC address and base radio MAC address. This means that we need to create user accounts on the RADIUS server that will be used to authenticate the MAP device.

To answer this question, we need to understand the format of the user account name that should be created on the RADIUS server. The format of the user account name typically depends on the type of device and the authentication method being used.

In this case, the MAP device being used is the indoor MAP 1260 with an Ethernet MAC address of 00:1d:a1:fe:e5:44 and a base radio MAC address of 00:1f:9d:2a:3f:10. Based on this information, we can determine that the user account name should be in one of the following formats:

  1. MAC address format: This format uses the MAC address of the device as the user account name. It is typically used when the device does not have a hostname or when the authentication method requires a unique identifier for the device.

  2. Hostname format: This format uses the hostname of the device as the user account name. It is typically used when the device has a hostname or when the authentication method requires a readable identifier for the device.

With this in mind, let's examine the answer choices:

A. 00:1f:9d:2a:3f:10 - This is the base radio MAC address of the MAP device. It can be used as the user account name in MAC address format.

B. 001da1fee544 - This is the Ethernet MAC address of the MAP device without colons. It can be used as the user account name in MAC address format.

C. c1260-001da1fee544 - This is a hostname format that combines the model name of the device and the Ethernet MAC address without colons. It can be used as the user account name in hostname format.

D. ap3g1-001da1fee544 - This is a hostname format that combines the AP type and the Ethernet MAC address without colons. It is not the correct format for this specific MAP device.

E. c1260-001f9d2a3f10 - This is a hostname format that combines the model name of the device and the base radio MAC address without colons. It can be used as the user account name in hostname format.

F. ap3g1-001f9d2a3f10 - This is a hostname format that combines the AP type and the base radio MAC address without colons. It is not the correct format for this specific MAP device.

Based on the above analysis, the correct answer choices are A and B. Therefore, we need to create user accounts on the RADIUS server with the MAC addresses of the device in MAC address format.
