If multiple wireless access points are used, you have the option of allowing roaming connections between them.
The ability of a supplicant to perform a fast reconnect with OneSpan Authentication Server, and roam between wireless access points, depends on two factors:
- SSID. If a wireless access point's SSID is identical to that of the wireless access point with which the current session was created, the supplicant will be able to attempt a fast reconnect.
- Policy. If the component record of the wireless access point passing on a fast reconnect request uses the same policy as the component record of the wireless access point with which the current session was created, OneSpan Authentication Server will process the fast reconnect request.
No roaming wireless connections
Having no roaming wireless connections means that a user will be required to perform a full authentication when moving to a new wireless access point. To configure the system this way, you need to set each wireless access point's SSID to a different value.
Allow roaming wireless connections
Where roaming connections will be used, assign the same SSID to all wireless access points in each zone.

| Scenario | Record | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Roaming connections, one zone | Policy records | Create one policy record only. |
| Component records | Link all component records to that policy. | |
| Roaming connections, multiple zones | Policy record | Create a policy record with the required settings, and create as many copies of it as you have roaming zones. |
| Component records | Assign each policy to a wireless roaming zone. Component records for each wireless access point in a roaming zone should be assigned to the same policy. |
