You need only set the Roam_Config parameter on a Station or
Alternate Master. Masters will ignore the parameter if it is set.

RangeLAN2 Roaming
In order to enhance our wireless solutions, Proxim offers roam-
ing capability to break the wireless distance barrier. To accom-
plish this, install RangeLAN2 7500 Access Points throughout
your building. The coverage of each RangeLAN2 7500 Access
Point should overlap in order to provide uninterrupted wireless
access at any location within the building. The RangeLAN2
7500 Access Points act as "cells," similar in concept to those of a
cellular phone network. With the installed wireless network,
mobile clients attach to any RangeLAN2 7500 within range.
Each RangeLAN2 7500 within a roaming network should be
configured as a Master (not Alternate Master) on a unique
Channel/Subchannel pair, but all must have the same Domain
number and Security ID. The portable PCs are equipped with
RangeLAN2 7200 cards which are also set to the same Domain.
As the portable PC seamlessly switches from cell to cell, its
network connectivity is preserved.
