Access to other
resources Shortly after a computer has been started in a Windows network, the user
can see the names of all other currently accessible computers in the network
in the Windows Explorer Network Neighborhood (including the user's own
computer).
The released folders and files are as easily accessible in Explorer as the hard
disks and drives in the user's computer.
6.2 Link to a company network
As well as setting up independent networks, the second great advantage of
the wireless network is the ability to expand existing wired networks. It
makes no difference here whether the existing LAN is to be extended but
wiring the new workstations is uneconomical or impossible or whether, for
example, external employees should have a mobile link to the LAN during an
internal assignment.
For example: In the
sales department We shall use the sales department of a medium-sized company as an
example for an infrastructure network. The sales employees are transferred
to another floor. Because they are usually out in the field in any case, the new
workstations are not fully wired but an access point, such as the
LANCOM Wireless L-11 , is used to access the company LAN. Additional
access points are installed because the sales employees need network
access for their notebooks in other departments of the company. They enable
a sales employee to access the network anywhere inside the company
premises. When the employee moves into another wireless cell, the stations
automatically log off from the former access point and log on to the new
access point. The procedure is known as roaming.
