4.5. Fast Roaming Settings
On a wireless network with multiple access points, as a wireless client moves from one coverage area to another, the wireless
client may need to change access points. If enabled, Fast Roaming identies other APs on the wireless network, determines
which will provide the best and fastest connection for a particular wireless client as it moves between AP coverage areas. Fast
Roaming ‘pre-approves’ the client and the APs to assure a constant connection for the client to the wireless network.
