Abstract
A method for establishing a first and second association between a main node and respectively a first and second wireless node is disclosed. The first association associates a first virtual access point VAPof the main node and the first node. The first virtual access point transmits to the first node first beacon frames comprising a first item of information BSSIDrepresentative of the first association BSS. The first virtual access point VAPis identified by a services set identifier SSID. According to the invention, when the main node receives from the node a request for the establishment of the second association BSS, the method comprises, at controller level, a step of creation of a second virtual access point so as to isolate the transmissions over the associations.
