Operation of the BAT 11b as Multi-Access Client
This operation is possible in the infrastructure or ad-hoc
(peer-to-peer) mode. Several computers are connected to the
BAT 11b-AC via a switch. In this case, NAT (Network Address
Translation) is applied so that all computers can be reached
via the MAC address of the BAT 11b-AC. Therefore, only the IP
protocol can be transferred transparently. If protocols other
than IP have to be transferred, each client has to be operated
at a single-access client, since NAT is only possible for IP for
multi-access clients.
Note: If the connected computers are to be configured via
DHCP, the DHCP server has to reply to their request with a
broadcast.
