Same-Site Separate

Networks

In this scenario, as shown in the following figure, Multiple APs can coexist as
separate networks at the same site without interference using different network
identifiers (wireless LAN service areas). The wireless clients can move within the
coverage area of one AP and remain connected, or can roam (if configured to do
so) to the coverage area of a different AP, and communicate with the wireless
clients associated with that AP.
