Both of the APs in
access points (VAPs) enabled, and each VAP uses a different network (SSID). When users
search for available wireless networks, all three SSIDs appear in the list of networks. The
laptop clients connect to the Company WLAN or Guest Network, and the VoIP phones
connect to the VoIP Network.
The L3 Tunnel feature is enabled on the VoIP network, but it is disabled on the Guest and
Company WLAN networks since those networks are primarily for data traffic. The VoIP
network is for voice traffic. L3 Roaming uses IP tunneling so clients appear to be on the same
subnet even though the APs are on different subnets.
In the sample network that
WLAN networks on two different APs. The Internet phone users are connected to the same
WLAN network on two different APs. On the VoIP Network, the phone users can seemlessly
roam between AP1 and AP2 without service interruption or the need to re-authenticate or
change networks.
The WCS uses a VLAN routing interface as a separate logical network configured for the L3
tunnel network. This network is the L3 tunneling subnet and has a network address of
192.168.100.0.
For information about how to configure a network to use L3 tunneling, including CLI
commands and Web configuration procedures, see Appendix C,
page 187.

Configuring AP Security

The Default AP profile does not use any security mechanism by default. In order to protect
your network, we strongly recommend that you select a security mechanism so that
unauthorized wireless clients cannot gain access to your network.
From the Wireless Network Configuration page, you can select None, WEP or
WPA/WPA2 as the WLAN security mechanisms, as

Figure 42. AP Network Security Options

The following sections describe the security mechanicians.
Using No Security
If you select None as your security mode, no further options are configurable on the AP. This
mode means that any data transferred between the D-Link Access Point and the associated
wireless clients is not encrypted, and any wireless client can associate with the AP.
This security mode can be useful during initial network configuration or for problem solving,
but it is not recommended for regular use on the internal network because it is not secure.
