3.4.2 CLIENT
The user can configure up to 20 Access Points. The Vanguard Cellular Broadband Router will try to connect to the best
Access Point in the list that is reachable. When the Vanguard unit connects to an Access Point, it starts a DHCP client on
the interface. The Access Point must provide a DHCP server. The DHCP server must provide an IP address, network
mask and gateway to the Vanguard unit. When the Vanguard unit is connected to an Access Point, the default route is
set to point to the gateway address obtained from the DHCP server.
Note: The Access Point must broadcast the SSID in order for the Client to be able to connect to it.
