Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for wireless roaming are disclosed. An access point receives a communication request from a wireless device and determines a home broadcast domain associated with the wireless device. The access point determines that the home broadcast domain is different than the broadcast domain associated with the access point and proceeds to identify a second access point that is associated with the home broadcast domain of the wireless device. The access point establishes a tunnel between the access point and the second access point for routing traffic associated with the wireless device.
