Determining Your VAP Needs

When deciding how to configure your VAPs, begin by considering your communication needs, particularly:

• How many different classes of wireless users do I need to support?
• How do I want to secure these different classes of wireless users?
• Do my wireless client have the required hardware and drivers to support the chosen security settings?
• What network resources do my wireless users need to communicate with?
• Do any of these wireless users need to communicate with other wireless users?
• What security services do I wish to apply to each of these classes or wireless users?
