Introduction to Wireless Networking
An AP extends the capability of an existing Ethernet network to devices
on a wireless network. Wireless devices can
• connect to a single Access Point, or
• move between multiple Access Points located within the same
vicinity. As wireless clients move from one coverage cell to another,
the devices maintain network connectivity.
