    Remote Site WLAN Configuration
    The Wireless Router
    Remote workers, small branch offices, and home
    networks often use a small office and home router.
    • These “integrated” routers typically include a switch for
    wired clients, a port for an internet connection
    (sometimes labeled “WAN”), and wireless components
    for wireless client access.
    • These wireless routers typically provide WLAN security,
    DHCP services, integrated Name Address Translation
    (NAT), quality of service (QoS), as well as a variety of
    other features.
    • The feature set will vary based on the router model.

    Note: Cable or DSL modem configuration is usually done


    by the service provider’s representative either on-site or
    remotely.

    Wireless LAN Topologies
    Wireless communication takes place over free space through the use of radio
    frequency (RF) signals.The standards we use for wireless LANs are defined in
    IEEE 802.11
    Basic Service Set

     BSS (Basic Service Set) in wireless


    networking refers to a group of devices or
    nodes that are connected together to form a
    local area network (LAN) using wireless
    communication
     A BSS consists of two types of devices:
    access points (APs) and client devices.

    SSID
     SSID stands for Service Set Identifier. It
    is a unique name given to a wireless
    network to identify it and distinguish it from
    other nearby wireless networks.

    BSSID

     BSSID stands for Basic Service Set


    Identifier. It is a unique identifier assigned
    to each access point (AP) in a wireless
    network.
     The BSSID is a 48-bit MAC (Media Access
    Control) address assigned by the
    manufacturer of the wireless access point.

    ESS
     When APs are placed at different
    geographic locations, they can all be
    interconnected by a switched
    infrastructure. The 802.11 standard calls
    this an extended service set (ESS).
    RF

    RF stands for Radio Frequency, which refers to


    the range of electromagnetic waves with
    frequencies between 3 kHz and 300 GHz.
