Rekey interval

The rekey interval is the period after which new keys are automatically generated for
data encryption with

WPA-PSK

Remote management

Remote management refers to the ability to manage a network from a network compo-
nent that is actually outside the local network (

LAN

Repeater

A repeater extends the range of a wireless local network by relaying data from the

Access point

to additional PCs or

Network adapters

Roaming

Roaming extends the range of a wireless LAN by using several

Access points

that use the

same

SSID

and the same radio channel and are linked via

Ethernet

. The PCs in the net-

work can switch dynamically between several access points without losing the existing
network connection.

Router

A router directs data packets from one local network (

LAN

) to another via the fastest

route. A router makes it possible to connect networks that have different network tech-
nologies. For example, it can link a local network with

Ethernet

WLAN

technology to

the

Internet
