Defining Wireless
Security
The
Wireless Configuration
section in the wizard
provides information for
configuring
Extended Service Sets
(ESS). ESS are the primary method of
organizing access points, security, and VLANs in a WLAN network. An ESS
are a group of access points that share the same Service Set Identification
(SSID).
APs announce their ESS membership by SSID parameter via Beacon
frames. When stations roam between the same ESS APs, stations remain
connected to the same wired network domain. Since the station remains
in the same broadcast domain and IP subnet, the station retains the same
IP address while roaming between the same ESS APs.
