Ad hoc mode:

An Ad-hoc network allows each device to communicate directly with each other. There is no central Access Point controlling device communication. Ad-hoc networks are only able to communicate with other Ad-hoc devices, they are not able to communicate with any Infrastructure devices or any other devices connected to a wired network. In addition, Ad-hoc mode security is less sophisticated compared to an Infrastructure mode network.

Infrastructure mode:

An Infrastructure mode network requires the use of an Access Point. The Access Point controls Wireless communication and offers several important advantages over an Ad-hoc network. For example, a Infrastructure based network supports increased levels of security, potentially faster data transmission speeds and integration with a wired network.

Ess and Bss are two different topology in infrastructure mode in IEE 802.11x . ESS has 2 or more access point .and Support mobility (roaming) between AP's by using mobile ip . BSS has only one access point to connect wireless node so not Support mobility (roaming).

What is the difference between fddi-i and fddi-ii?

FDDI 1 vs FDDI 2Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) is a data transmission standard for Local Area Networks (LAN) which uses fiber optic lines. A FDDI LAN can extend up to 200 kilometers and it can support thousands of users. The FDDI 1 protocol is based on the token ring protocol. FDDI 2 is an extended version of FDDI. It extends FDDI by adding capability to handle voice and video signals.Difference between FDDI 1 and FDDI 2 (FDDI ii)FDDI-2 is the second generation protocol of FDDI. The key difference between them is that, in addition to all the functionality FDDI provides, FDDI-2 provides the ability to handle voice signals and video. Even though both FDDI and FDDI-2 runs at 100 Mbits/sec on the fiber and transport asynchronous and synchronous types of frames, FDDI-2 can transport isochronous traffic using the newly developed hybrid mode. Further, FDDI and FDDI-2 stations can be operated in the same ring only in the basic FDDI mode
