Network Example with Lightweight Access Points
The lightweight access points support Layer 3 network operation. Lightweight access points and
controllers in Layer 3 configurations use IP addresses and UDP packets, which can be routed through
large networks. Layer 3 operation is scalable and recommended by Cisco.
This section illustrates a typical wireless network configuration containing lightweight access points and
a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (see Figure 1-13).
