What term describes seamless handoff between wireless access points as a client moves within the coverage area?

• A. Authentication.
• B. Association.
• C. Roaming.
• D. Bridge.

Answer: (C)

Roaming describes switching from one wireless access point to another as you move, while keeping the connection alive so your session remains uninterrupted. This seamless handoff lets a client stay connected within the same network coverage area as it moves, which is exactly what roaming conveys. Authentication is about proving identity, which may occur during the process but doesn’t describe moving between APs. Association is the initial step of connecting to an AP, not the ongoing mobility between multiple APs. A bridge is a network device that connects segments at the data link layer, not the mobility concept within a Wi‑Fi environment.
