Configuring the Wi-Fi Array 283

To enable fast roaming, choose Broadcast or Tu n n e l e d , and set additional

fast roaming attributes (Step 21). To disable fast roaming, choose Off. If

you enable Fast Roaming, the following ports cannot be blocked:

• Port 22610 — reserved for Layer 2 roaming using UDP to share PMK

information between Arrays.

• Ports 15000 to 17999 — reserved for Layer 3 roaming (tunneling

between subnets).

20. Fast Roaming Layer: Select whether to enable roaming capabilities

between IAPs or Arrays at Layer 2 and 3, or at Layer 2 only. Depending

on your wired network, you may wish to allow fast roaming at Layer 3.

This may result in delayed traffic.

21. Share Roaming Info With: Three options allow your Array to share

roaming information with all Arrays; just with those that are within

range; or with specifically targeted Arrays. Choose either All, In Range

or Targ et On ly, respectively.

a. Fast Roaming Targets: If you chose Tar ge t On ly, use this option to

add target MAC addresses. Enter the MAC address of each target

Array, then click on Add (add as many targets as you like). To find a

target’s MAC address, open the Array Info window on the target

Array and look for IAP MAC Range, then use the starting address of

this range.

To delete a target, select it from the list, then click Delete.

22. Click on the Apply button to apply the new settings to this session, or

click Save to apply your changes and make them permanent.
