Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs)

Configuration Options: Normal Versus Advanced Mode

Figure 4-9 displays an environment such as this. This figure also shows the

option of enabling SSID A (WLAN 1) on the default configuration, but having

SSID E (WLAN 5) be the primary WLAN. (Stations in WLAN 1 can then roam

into areas in which WLAN 1 operates in closed system.) In this example,

WLAN 1 is less a restricted WLAN than a WLAN that is primarily used by

employees in one area.

Figure 4-9. Configuring an Area-Specific WLAN

Note Depending on whether you enable WLANs or advanced mode configuration

first, the radio adoption configuration begins with either the normal WLAN

assignment or an empty WLAN assignment. Leaving the WLAN assignment in

the default configurations empty is not necessarily undesirable: it can increase

security. However, you should be aware that in this case newly adopted radios

will not support WLANs until you manually configure them to do so.
