Abstract

This chapter provides an understanding of implementation of secure wireless networks. Wireless local area networking is not exactly a new technology, but it has gained rapid acceptance in the past two years and is in wide use now with new deployments being set up every day. Wireless networking provides a new era of data connectivity unmatched by cabled networks. Increases in the speed of deployment, access to data, and scalability mean that the needs of specific user communities can be addressed in ways that were unavailable to network architects a few years ago. New streams of end-user applications and services are being developed to provide businesses and consumers alike with advanced data access and manipulation. Wireless technologies provide the greatest flexibility of design, integration, and deployment of any networking solution available. With only transceivers to install in the local station and a wireless hub or access point to be configured for local access, it is simple to retrofit wireless networking within existing structures or create access services that traditional networking infrastructures are not capable of addressing.
