How to check WLC candidate list from LAP or WLC?

Hello everyone,

According to Wireless CCNA 640-722 offical cert guide, there was a WLC candidate list stored in AP's NVRAM, could you please advise how to verifiy this list from LAP ort WLC? If it is possible to check it ?

I cited below from the guide.

Use locally stored WLCs —An AP can be “primed” with up to three
controllers—a primary, a secondary, and a tertiary. These are stored in
nonvolatile memory so that the AP can remember them after a reboot or
power failure. Otherwise, if an AP has previously joined with a controller, it
should have stored up to 8 out of a list of 32 WLC addresses that it received
from the last controller it joined. The AP will attempt to contact as many
controllers as possible to build a list of candidates.

Thank you very much.

The WLCs and Cisco LAPs are part of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network architecture. The Cisco Unified Wireless Network architecture centralizes WLAN configuration and control on the WLC. The LAPs cannot act independently of the WLC. The WLC manages the LAP configurations and firmware. The LAPs are "zero touch" deployed, and no individual configuration of LAPs is required.
