1.1 The basic functions of a wireless network
This chapter introduces the basic functional principles of a wireless network.
The terms used will be explained and the structure and possible applications
of wireless networks introduced. Detailed information on this and other top-
ics can be found in the electronic documentation on the CD.
Wireless network
adapters WLAN
Wireless network adapters connect individual notebooks and PCs to a Local
Area Network (LAN). As the usual network cables have been replaced by a
radio link in this case, we also refer to this as a Wireless Local Area Network
(WLAN).
Access point
Furthermore, the access point forms the bridge between LAN and WLAN.
The LANCOM Wireless access point also can function as an Internet router
or a wireless bridge between two ethernet LANs. It has a slot for a wireless
network adapter (AirLancer MC-11) as well as a normal Ethernet connection
on the other side to exchange data between the two networks.
Radio cell
The maximum area in which wireless network adapters in mobile stations
and the access point can reach each other and exchange data is known as a
radio cell.
All of the standard functions of a wired network are also available in a wire-
less network: Access to files, servers, printers etc. is possible as is the inte-
gration of the mobile stations into an internal company e-mail system.
1.2 Operating modes
The following operating modes are available using LANCOM Systems wire-
less network adapters and access points:
Ad hoc network (peer-to-peer)
Infrastructure network
Wireless bridge
Wireless LAN + ISDN gateway (LANCOM Wireless IL-11)
Wireless LAN + DSL gateway
Direct PC
connection
Use the wireless network cards to link two or more computers directly. All
computers in a WLAN can then communicate with one another with no addi-
tional hardware.
