AUTO CONFIGURATION OF A WIRELESS NETWORK OPERATION WITH SEVERAL ACCESS POINTS

摘要

In an inclusion protocol for securely configuring access points (APs) in a wireless LAN (WLAN) with multiple APs, a first, initially configured AP initiates an inclusion protocol to establish an out-of-band communication channel (OOB) with at least one satellite AP. The first AP configures the at least one satellite AP based on the OOB to establish at least one satellite coverage area of the WLAN.
