CHAPTER 8Wireless LAN Wireless Network concepts and standard Wireless LAN Security 640-802 CCNA
Chapter Objective 640-802 CCNA • On completion of this chapter, you will be able to perform the following tasks: • Understand Wireless network concepts • Understand Wireless LAN standard (IEEE802.11) • Understand basic Wireless network security
Wireless LAN 640-802 CCNA Transmitting a signal using the typical 802.11 specifications works a lot like it does with a basic Ethernet hub: They’re both two-way forms of communication, and they both use the same frequency to both transmit and receive, often referred to as “half-duplex”. Wireless LANs (WLANs) use radio frequencies (RFs) that are radiated into the air from an antenna that creates radio waves.
