Example - Configuring an 802.11a WAP With Roaming
End Devices

In this example, there is one 802.11a radio in the access point and there is
one 802.11a radio in the WAP. Wireless end devices can roam between the
WAP and the access point.

Table 5 Configuring an 802.11a Access Point and WAP Parameters

You need to configure the wireless end devices to have the same SSID,
LAN ID, and frequency as the WAP radio. You do not need to configure
any secondary LAN settings because the WAP is not connected to a
secondary LAN.

Allied Telesyn recommends that you always implement some type of
security.
