Guidelines for Roaming
❑
Roaming occurs between RangeLAN2 Access Points
and Extension Points. It does not occur between
RangeLAN2 Ethernet Adapters or RangeLAN2 7100
ISA cards that are installed in network file servers.
❑
All RangeLAN2 Access Points must have the same
Domain and Security ID.
❑
All RangeLAN2 Access Points have a unique Channel/
Subchannel pair. Preferably, they should have unique
Channels. Use the Subchannel only when you have
used all 15 Channels in the same coverage area.
❑
All workstations with RangeLAN2 7100 or 7400 cards
are configured as Stations with a Domain and Security
ID that matches the values used by the RangeLAN2
Access Points between which they will roam.
❑
For contiguous coverage, the cells created by
RangeLAN2 Access Points must overlap.
❑
Roaming will not occur across routers unless you use a
third party software utility like Mobile IP.
