Technical Assistance Center

The Cisco TAC is available to all customers who need technical assistance with a Cisco product, technology, or solution. Two types of support are available: the Ci sco TAC website and the Cisco TAC Escalation Center. The type of support that you choose depends on t he priorit y of the proble m and the conditions stated in service contracts, when applicable.

We categorize Cisco TAC inquiries according to urgency:

• Priority level 4 (P4)—You need information or assistance concerning Cisco product capabilities,

product installation, or basic produc t con figuration. There is little or no imp act to yo ur business operations.

• Priority level 3 (P3)—Operational performanc e of t he ne twork i s im pai red , but mo st business

operations remain functional. You and Cisco are willing to commit r esources during normal b usiness hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

• Priority level 2 (P2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects

of your business operations are negatively impacted by inadeq ua te pe rform an ce of Cisc o pro duct s. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situat ion.

• Priority level 1 (P1)—An existing network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business

operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Network Configuration Examples

This section describes the access point ’s role in three commo n wireless networ k configurati ons. The access point’s default configuration is as a root unit connected to a wired LAN or as the central unit in an all-wireless netwo rk. T he rep eat er r ol e r equ ire s a sp ec ific co nfigura tion.

Root Unit on a Wired LAN

An access point connected directly to a wired LAN provides a connection point for wireless users. If more than one access poi nt is connected to the LAN, users c an roam from one area of a fac ility to another without losing thei r conn ect ion to t he ne twork. A s users move out o f range o f one a ccess poi nt, they automatically con nect to the network (assoc iate) th rough anot her acces s point . The roami ng proce ss is seamless and transparent to th e user. Figu re 1 -3 shows access poin ts acting as ro ot unit s on a wir ed LAN.

Repeater Unit that Extends Wireless Range

An access point can be configured as a stand-alone repeater to extend the range of your infrastructure or to overcome an obstacle that blocks radio communication. The repeater forwards traffic between wireless users and the wired LAN by sending packets to ei ther an other repe ater or to an a ccess poi nt connected to the wired LAN. The data is sent through the route that provides the best performance for the client. Figure 1-4 shows an access point acting as a repeater. Consult the Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points for instructions on setting up an access point as a repeater.
