The correct answer to this question is D. AAA override.

Central Web Authentication (CWA) is a feature that allows wireless clients to be authenticated through a web portal before being granted access to the network. When enabled, the wireless client is redirected to a login page where they must enter valid credentials to gain access.

To enable CWA for wireless users on an AireOS controller, the WLAN must have the AAA Override feature enabled. AAA Override allows for the WLAN to use an external AAA server for client authentication instead of relying on the internal database on the controller. This is necessary for CWA because the controller must redirect the client to the web portal where they can enter their credentials for authentication.

Enabling DHCP server or override Interface ACL or static IP tunneling do not relate to CWA for wireless users on AireOS controller.

In summary, to trigger Central Web Authentication for Wireless users on AireOS controller, the advanced option within a WLAN that must be enabled is AAA override.
