4-1 Chapter 4: Network Configuration Wireless networks support a st andalone configuration as well as an integrated configuration with 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LANs . The RoamAbout RBT -4102 also provides bridging services t hat can be configured independ ently on either the 5 GHz o r 2.
Network Co nfiguration 4-2 Network Topologies Ad Hoc Wireless LAN (no Access Point) An ad hoc wireless LAN consist s of a group of computers, each equipped with a wirele ss adapter , connected via radio signals as an i ndependent wireless LAN. Computers in a specific ad hoc wireless LAN must therefore be configured t o the same radio channel.
Network T opologies 4-3 Infrastructure Wireless LAN The access point also provides access to a wired LAN for wire less workstat ions. An integrated wired/wireless LAN is cal l ed an Infrastructure confi guration. A Basic Service Set (BSS) consist s of a group of wireless PC users, and an acce ss point that is dire ctly connected to the wired LAN.
Network Co nfiguration 4-4 Infrastructure Wireless LA N for Roaming Wireless PCs The Basic Service Set (BSS) defines the communi cations domain for each access point and its associated wireless cli ents.
Network T opologies 4-5 Infrastructure Wireless Bridge The IEEE 802.1 1 standard defines a Wirele ss Distribution System (WDS) for bridge connections between BSS areas (access points) . The a ccess point uses WDS to forward traffi c on links bet ween unit s.

B-1 Appendix B: Cables and Pinouts Twisted-Pair Cabl e Assignments For 10/100BASE-TX connections, a twist ed-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. Each wire pai r is identified by two dif ferent colors. For example, one wire might be gree n and the other , green with white stripes.
Cables and Pinout s B-2 10/100BASE-TX Pin Assignments Use unshielded twi sted-pair (UTP) or shielded twist ed-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Cat egory 3 or better cable for 10 Mbp s connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-p air connec tion does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
T wisted-Pair Cab l e Assignme nts B-3 Straight-Through Wiring If the twisted-pa ir cable is to join two ports and only one of the port s has an internal crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be stra ight-through.
Cables and Pinout s B-4 Console Port Pin Assignments The DB-9 console port on the front p anel of the access point is used to connect to t he access point for out-of-band console configuratio n. The command-line configuration program can be accessed from a terminal, or a PC runni ng a terminal emulation program.
