Chapter 1 Overview

Network Deployment Examples

Mesh Network

The access points are typically deployed in a mesh network configuration. In a typical mesh deployment,

one or more RAPs have a wired network connection through a switch to a controller. Other remote MAPs

without wired network connections use the backhaul feature to optimally link to a RAP that is connected

to the wired network. In the mesh network, the links between the access points are referred to as the

backhaul links.

Intelligent wireless routing is provided by the patented Adaptive Wireless Path Protocol (AWPP). This

enables each MAP to identify its neighbors and intelligently choose the optimal path to the RAP with

the wired network connection by calculating the cost of each path in terms of signal strength and the

number of hops required to get to a controller.

Figure 1-8 illustrates a typical mesh configuration using MAPs and RAPs.
