Agenda
ZAMREN AfNOG 2013 Tutorial
Summary
This tutorial will introduce you to the essentials of wireless networking from frequencies and signals to antennas to practical network design and deployment, and the integration with wired infrastructure, e.g. in a university campus network. We will address wireless security, authentication and access control, and briefly the challenges of stable and affordable power for your network. Whether you want to build a 100 km wireless link, or connect thousands of people in your community, campus or company - this tutorial will give you the basics for doing this, and a guide for how to continue beyond the two days. The tutorial will conclude with a brief outlook on wireless beyond Wifi: TV White Spaces.
