This chapter contains information about planning and managing your 
wireless network with 3WXM. Planning your wireless network is highly 
recommended because it not only helps you configure and deploy it, but 
also aids in scaling and monitoring your network. 3Com provides you 
with flexible tools to assist with network planning.
You plan your wireless network to support the services you want to offer 
your employees, guests, or customers. Figure 3 describes the process you 
will follow to establish services in your company or organization, 
beginning with determining the services you want to offer. Each step in 
the process is described in this chapter.
