be the same for each computer on the network and has to match the
name that has been assigned to the access point.
If you are creating an infrastructure network with more than one access point,
the roaming function is always available. Roaming guarantees the ability of
a mobile computer to switch from one wireless cell to another. The IAPP
protocol has to be enabled for the access points so that the roaming computer
can be logged on and off of the various access points. You also have to set
the channel numbers at the access points (refer to page 'Considerations for
setting up a wireless network')42. As the network name, you can enter
'ANY'. This allows the roaming stations to log onto any nearby access point.
In this case, access at the access point has to be permitted for the network
name, 'ANY'.
