Most of the examples and configurations described in this User’s
Guide, refer to standard infrastructure network scenarios, where
wireless computer terminals connect to the network via
WavePOINT-II access points.
When you would like to setup two WaveLAN/EC-S device as a
replacement to serial cable connections, you will need to configure
the WaveLAN/EC-S device in slightly different way.
■
The WaveLAN network operation mode of both devices should
be configured to an “Independent Basic Service Set” (ibss)
1
.
■
Assign a unique IP Address to each station (see page 4-22).
■
Set the TCP/IP Binding parameter of each WaveLAN/EC-S
device to communicate exclusively with the IP Address of the
corresponding Link Partner.
For example looking at Figure 4-7, the parameter setting for both
stations A & B would look as follows:
The IP Address values can of course be replaced with any valid IP
Address value from the range assigned to your organization.

ibss is usually referred to as “Ad-hoc Demo” mode.
