configured on the same subnetwork as the wired network interface and can be accessed by
devices on the wired network.
Possible AP Topologies
1. An access point can be used as a single AP without any connection to a wired network. In
this configuration, it simply provides a stand-alone wireless network for a group of
wireless devices.
2. The WAB-1000 can be used as one of a number of APs connected to an existing Ethernet
network to bridge between the wired and wireless environments. Each AP can operate
independently of the other APs on the LAN. Multiple APs can coexist as separate
individual networks at the same site without interference if each AP is set with a different
network ID (SSID).
3. The last and most prevalent use is multiple APs connected to a wired network and
operating off that network’s DHCP server which can provide a wider coverage area for
wireless devices, enabling the devices to “roam” freely about the entire site. This is the
topology of choice today.
