A Field Office Example

He could then enter the user-based or protocol-based restrictions in the EngSN --> WAN section.

Since Leo does not need to make any changes, there is nothing more to be done.

Installing the Access Ports and Testing

The switch is now configured! Leo connects the switch’s WAN port to the VPN appliance that goes to the outside world. He gets three laptops and sets each of them to use DHCP for IP address assignment, 802.1x EAP for user authentication, and WPA-TKIP for data encryption over the wireless link. He uses the first laptop to connect to the engineering WLAN, the second to connect to the sales and marketing WLAN, and the third laptop to connect to the administration WLAN. He makes sure that laptops on each WLAN can connect to the WAN and to each other.

After he has tested the three subnets, he installs the Access Ports in their permanent locations. He test coverage with the laptops, making sure each Access Port is covering its assigned area. He also unplugs each of the engineering Access Ports, in turn, to be sure that both are working properly. When everything seems to be working, he sends an email to the users telling them that the new wireless network is up and running!
