4. When an AP and WB communicate over the wireless LAN, set them both to the
same ESSID. For example, set the AP of the main office and the WB of the first
AP-WB relay pair to the same ESSID. Also, set the AP of the last AP-WB relay
and the WB of the remote site to the same ESSID; this ESSID should be
different from the first ESSID.
5. Another option is to use one ESSID, and to set the Preferred AP parameter of
each WB to its paired AP (refer to Section 3.4.3). This option allows stations to
roam between the sites.
6. As usual, make sure that the hopping sequence of the Access Points is different.

7. If desired, an additional AP may be added at the main office and remote site,
and between each AP-WB pair to provide wireless LANs at those points (see
Figure 5-7).

8. Install Station Adapters or SA-PCR cards on workstations (refer to Chapter 2).
