Chapter 8 - MAC and Physical Layers 202 We mentioned earlier in this book how most of the technology in any wireless LAN is the same but that manufacturers approach and utilize that technology differently. In this chapter we will discuss some of the MAC and Physical layer characteristics of wireless LANs that are common to all wireless LAN products regardless of manufacturer. We will explain the difference between Ethernet and wireless LAN frames and how wireless LANs avoid collisions. We ll walk through how wireless LAN stations communicate with one another under normal circumstances then how collision handling occurs in a wireless LAN. It is important for you as a wireless LAN administrator to know this level of detail in order to be able to properly configure and administer an access point as well as to be able to diagnose and solve problems that are common to wireless LANs. How Wireless LANs Communicate In order to understand how to configure and manage a wireless LAN the administrator must understand communication parameters that are configurable on the equipment and how to implement those parameters. In order to estimate throughput across wireless LANs one must understand the affects of these parameters and collision handling on system throughput. This section conveys a basic understanding of many configurable parameters and their
