Chapter 1: Introduction
Figure 1-1. Configuration page.
The Network tab provides administrators the ability to enable/disable both the Coalesce unit's Ethernet port and the Coalesce
unit's wireless capabilities, with additional settings/options available for each option when they are enabled. In addition, the
Firewall between the Coalesce unit's Ethernet and wireless connections can be set to allow for Internet to pass through from the
Ethernet port to the Coalesce unit's wireless network. Finally, the Coalesce unit's base ports can be modified to align Coalesce
traffic with existing IT routing policies.

1.4 Coalesce Topology

This topology diagram illustrates how the components of a Coalesce instance relate to each other at a high level. The Coalesce
client software communicates with the Coalesce via TCP/IP traffic over an Ethernet/WiFi network.
The remainder of this guide provides detailed setup instructions to accommodate specific network configurations and
requirements.
