ZyAIR G-1000 Access Point
14
The roaming feature on the access points allows the access points to relay information about the wireless
stations to each other. When a wireless station moves from a coverage area to another, it scans and uses the
channel of a new access point, which then informs the access points on the LAN about the change. The new
information is then propagated to the other access points on the LAN. An example is shown in Figure 3.
If the roaming feature is not enabled on the access points, information is not communicated between the
access points when a wireless station moves between coverage areas. The wireless station may not be able
to communicate with other wireless stations on the network and vice versa.

To enable roaming on your ZyAIR, click WIRELESS, then the Roaming tab. The screen appears as
shown.
