Setting the Communication Domain
Stationary Wireless PCs
The Basic Service Set (BSS) is the communication domain for each WL11000SA-N access
point. For wireless PCs that do not need to support roaming, set the domain identifier (SSID)
for the wireless card to the BSS ID of the access point you want to connect to. Check with your
administrator for the BSS ID of the WL11000SA-N access point he wants you to connect to.
Roaming Wireless PCs
A wireless infrastructure can also support roaming for mobile workers. More than one access
point can be configured to create an Extended Service Set (ESS). By placing the access
points so that a continuous coverage area is created, wireless users within this ESS can roam
freely. All wireless network cards and adapters and WL11000SA-N access points within a
specific ESS must be configured with the same SS ID.
