Access Point
A networking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless 
networks. Access points attached to a wired network, support the 
creation of multiple radio cells that enable roaming throughout a 
facility.
Ad Hoc
A group of computers connected as an independent wireless 
network, without an access point.
Advanced Encryption Standard 
(AES)
An encryption algorithm that implements symmetric key 
cryptography. AES provides very strong encryption using a 
completely different ciphering algorithm to TKIP and WEP.
Authentication
The process to verify the identity of a client requesting network 
access. IEEE 802.11 specifies two forms of authentication: open
