Introduction

Ad Hoc Network

Figure 2-2. Ad Hoc Network Example

In the example above, the AP is not present. The PC makes a direct wireless connection with the WiBox to manage serial devices. Without an AP, it is a peer-to- peer relationship.

Serial Tunneling – Infrastructure

Figure 2-3. Serial Tunneling Infrastructure Example

In the example above, the WiBox communicates with another device server via the AP. The UDS device server, in this example, is connected via an Ethernet connection to the AP. In this way, the WiBox and the device server communicate directly and can transfer information between their serial devices.
