Guidelines For Roaming - Proxim RangeLAN2 752 Series Manual

Guidelines for Roaming

Roaming occurs between RangeLAN2 Access Points
and Extension Points. It does not occur between
RangeLAN2 Ethernet Adapters or RangeLAN2 7100
ISA cards that are installed in network file servers.
All RangeLAN2 Access Points must have the same
Domain and Security ID.
All RangeLAN2 Access Points have a unique Channel/
Subchannel pair. Preferably, they should have unique
Channels. Use the Subchannel only when you have
used all 15 Channels in the same coverage area.
All workstations with RangeLAN2 7100 or 7400 cards
are configured as Stations with a Domain and Security
ID that matches the values used by the RangeLAN2
Access Points between which they will roam.
For contiguous coverage, the cells created by
RangeLAN2 Access Points must overlap.
Roaming will not occur across routers unless you use a
third party software utility like Mobile IP.
