If user traffics are concentrated on a single centralized APC when there are many branches
or they are far from a headquarter, performance may be deteriorated due to the time delay
of packet transmission, etc. Therefore, use different operation schemes according to the
location of W-EP wireless LAN AP in the configuration of headquarter and branches.
In other words, the local W-EP wireless LAN AP in a headquarter does traffic tunneling to
an APC and the branch AP installed in a branch switches a user traffic directly to a
destination address without tunneling to the APC. Even at this time, the APC in a
headquarter manages all the W-EP wireless LAN APs and users.
