The most popular use of a WaveLAN/EC-S device is to connect
client devices to an IEEE Infrastructure network as pictured in
Figure 1-3 below.
Figure 1-3 Basic Infrastructure Topology
IEEE Infrastructures are network environments where wireless
clients are serviced by one or more WavePOINT-II access points
to allow communications between wireless and wired stations.
Adding one or more WavePOINT-II access points, allows you to
create a “roaming” environment, where (mobile) wireless devices
can move between different locations within your facility, while
maintaining their wireless connection to the network.
