Introduction
This section will describe a 4-step installation approach to configure your Base
Stations to service a roaming network environment for (mobile) wireless
stations.
Looking at the example pictured in Figure 4-10, each wireless cell is serviced by
one Base Station that has been set to “Base Station Services”. All Base Stations
share the same Network Name.
Figure 4-10: Basic Access Network
To connect a wireless station to the BreezeNET network, each station must be
configured with the same Network Name as the Base Station.
To configure the wireless stations, follow the instructions as described in the
documentation that comes with your wireless client adapter.
To install and configure the Base Station perform the following steps:
1. Install the Base Station hardware

desk and configure them one by one, or have the Base Stations mounted directly in their various locations prior to configuring
them via a network connection.
