Client to Hotspot Configuration
A laptop is connected through Wi-Fi, as a Wi-Fi client, to a Connected System Controller that
has its wireless settings configured as a Hotspot. The Connected VAV Controllers that are
part of the wired network are configured, on their wireless side as a Wi-Fi Access Point.
The other Connected VAV Controllers are configured as a Wi-Fi Client and are wirelessly
connected to an Access Point.
With this configuration, the laptop is on the same subnet as the Connected System
Controller (Subnet 2 created by the Hotspot), but all the Connected VAV Controllers are on a
different Subnet (Subnet 1), so the laptop user has access only to the Connected System
Controller.
