Sample text

The beacon frame includes a list known as a Traffic Indication Map (TIM) of all stations that have buffered frames at the access point that are awaiting delivery. Through the use of an interval timer, each station literally wakes up to listen to a beacon frame. When a beacon occurs, stations in the sleep mode will switch to an active listening mode and examine the contents of the beacon frame. If the station determines that there are buffered frames awaiting delivery it will transmit a request to the access point.

When station B transmits to station A, the access point searches its port/address table for the destination address (A). In this example the access point previously learned that address A is associated with port 0. Thus, the access point will not forward the frame onto the wired infrastructure, filtering the frame from flowing out of port 1. Instead, the access point rebroadcasts the frame onto port 0. Thus, the access point automatically creates its port/address table entries via noting the source MAC address of each frame and the port it arrived on.

10 covers a different area, this does not have to be the case. BSS’ can partially or fully overlap, with the latter used to provide redundancy. 11 standard and its extensions, BSS’ can overlap by operating on different frequency channels. To ensure stations communicate with the correct access point that functions as a hub within a BSS, a special identifier referred to as a Station Set ID (SSID) is employed to identify each access point. The SSID is also referred to as a Basic Service Set ID (BSSID) and is normally the MAC address of the access point.
