Scenario 1c: Hotspot with satellites and roaming
This scenario adds two APs to extend the wireless network in Scenario 1b.
This scenario adds two autonomous APs to extend the reach of the public access network created
by a service controller.
How it works
In this scenario, two autonomous APs are connected to a service controller to provide multiple
wireless cells for a large physical location.
Users can log into the public access network at any location and can roam between APs without
losing their connection.
By default, each AP is configured as a DHCP client and obtains its address from the service
controller, which by default is configured as the DHCP server.
User authentication is handled locally by the service controller, using accounts created on the
service controller for each user. There is no support for accounting.
The following diagram illustrates how the topology described in Scenario 1b can be modified to
support additional APs and roaming.
