<p>In <strong>ad-hoc</strong> wireless, <u>devices connect one another, without the need of an orchestrating device</u> such as an AP.</p>
336
336
<p>Every device in an ad-hoc network has <strong>equal (p2p) status</strong>.</p>
337
337
<p>Only <strong>requirements to join an ad-hoc topology</strong> is to support this topology (called <em>Indipendent Basic Service Set</em>, <strong>IBSS</strong>, in 802.11 standards) and being in the coverage range of any other participating device.</p>

<p>Examples of ad-hoc networks are bluetooth pairings, but mind that <strong>802.11 ad-hoc is not limited to 2 devices</strong>.</p>
<p>BSS is the simplest infrastructure topology, because <strong>it consists of a single AP and its connected STAs</strong>.</p>

<p>The <strong>coverage area of the AP is called <em>Basic Service Area</em></strong> (BSS). Outside of the BSA, a client cannot communicate with other devices in the BSS.</p>

<p>The <strong>coverage area of the AP is called <em>Basic Service Area</em></strong> (BSA). Outside of the BSA, a client cannot communicate with other devices in the BSS.</p>
355
355
<p>Therefore, BSS and BSA are often used as synonims.</p>
356

<p><strong>Each BSS is uniquely identified by the L2 MAC address of its AP</strong>, which is known as <strong><em>Basic Service Set Identifier</em></strong> (BSSID). There is a <u>1:1 relationship between BSS and BSSID</u>.</p>
