I have a customer that is using MAC based authentication with the Cisco
1200 AP's. One of the problems were having is in several areas of their
campus, a client computer will flop back and forth from one AP to
another. Now, without any authentication turned on, this is not a big
deal, because no traffic is lost. With the MAC based authentication
(pointint to a RADIUS server) I'm losing a ping every time it roams
(well, actually 7 of 11 times). This is a problem for these clients that
are flopping from one AP to another one, causing them to lose traffic.
Does anyone know if there's some sort of configuration that I'm missing
that allows this information to be cached so I don't have the delay when
roaming.
Second Question: Does anyone have any good links on what exactly happens
when you have overlapping channels? The questions I'm looking to have
answered are: how much overlap can you have? what happens to the traffic
when you have overlap? What metric do you use to determine whether
overlap is going to be a problem.
Thanks in advance everyone!
