Network Planning
NovaRoams can be used in a wide variety of network configurations. Therefore, it
would be impossible to explain how to plan for each configuration in this manual.
Planning your network in advance is recommended. Doing so provides an
opportunity to develop an IP addressing scheme that makes the most sense for
your particular application. Depending on the type of network, several factors may
influence your planning.
• Mobile vs. stationary network
• Point-to-point vs. mesh
• Standalone Network vs. Internet connection
Once the network topology is known, the NovaRoams can be configured
appropriately.
Refer to Appendix A for an example NovaRoam network.
Planning NovaRoam Configuration
There are multiple router modes to choose from. The best router mode for any
given situation depends on the particular needs of the wireless network. After
obtaining details about the wireless network, the appropriate NovaRoam router
mode can be determined.
Refer to Appendix B for more details about routing modes and operation of the
NovaRoam.
