Wireless switch network architecture implementing layer 3 mobility domains

摘要: Techniques and technologies are provided in which wireless switches, each supporting their own subnet, configured as part of a mobility domain. Each switch the domain can discover other switches upon joining network, establish peering session with within This involve establishing data tunnel, operates according to GRE-over-IP, control connection between pair tunnel carries complete Layer-2 (L2) packets first second switch. L2 packet comprises header information (e.g., VLAN identifier), is made available at destination tunnel. over Internet Protocol (IP) transmission protocol (TCP). transfer client device related plane architecture allow retain its layer 3 (L3) address when roams switch) As such, maintains network connectivity it
