•Initial Configuration: Description of Cedar860 initial configuration and the

management interfaces

•System: Instructions for changing system parameters

•Network: Instructions for changing network parameters

•Security: Instructions for configuring RADIUS and authentication profiles

•Wireless Network: Instructions for configuring and monitoring wireless network

•Management: Instructions for changing management interface settings

•Log: Description of the log file

•Monitor: Description of how to monitor the system

•Command Line Interface: Description of Command Line Interface (CLI) syntax

1.1 Wireless Network

A wireless network is a flexible data communications system that extends the capability

of the existing wired network to provide connectivity for wireless devices. Unlike the

traditional wired network which relies on physical cables and wires to transmit and

receive data, a wireless network relies on radio frequency (RF) technology to transmit

and receive data.

A Wireless Access Point (AP) is a device that connects wireless communication devices.

It is usually connected to a wired network on one end, and relays data to the wireless

network on the other end.

The advent of the wireless network opens up the possibility of what a network

infrastructure can be. Without the restriction of wires, the network can move with users

and change as fast as the organization does. Figure 1.1 illustrates a sample wireless

network.

1.2 Wireless Distribution System (WDS)

With the inherent difficulties involved in physically connecting access points, a Wireless

Distribution System (WDS) provides an excellent alternative by interconnecting the

access points wirelessly. As illustrated in Figure 1.2, Access Point A has no cable access

and can not be connected with a switch or router. It relies on Access Point B to relay the

data for its remote clients.

An access point can be run as either a main or relay station. A main station is typically

connected to the wired Ethernet. A relay station relays data between a main station and

another relay station. Both main stations and relay stations accept connections from

wireless clients.

1.3 Access Point Deployment

The deployment of access point depends greatly on the building structure, the existing

wiring and the type of service to be deployed. For example, RF signals transmit much

easier through a wood-frame building than through a concrete one. For newly constructed

buildings where Ethernet cable CAT 5 is pre-installed, wiring is not a concern. For older

construction, where re-cabling is cost prohibitive, a solution which is less dependent on

wiring such as WDS may be more viable.

The access point coverage areas should overlap to ensure there are no gaps and roaming

clients always have a connection available. In addition, the number of active wireless

users and the type of service they are using (e.g. VoIP) are important factors to consider.

1.4 Application Deployment

Applications can be deployed easily after a network infrastructure is in place. Figure 1.3

illustrates a possible scenario:

•High Speed Internet Access is available for all wireless clients.

•Voice over IP applications can be used for calling over the Internet.

•Streaming media data can be offered over the IP network.

•Handheld devices for mobile staff can easily communicate with each other.

•All voice, video and data are transmitted seamlessly using QoS technology.
