Do i need a ZoneDirector for Wireless Roaming?

Hi,

Do i need a ZoneDirector for Wireless Roaming?
One of my Customers need a Wireless Network for his Warehouse. There will be about 15 to 20 Wireless Barcode Scanner. The Scanner supports 802.11b/g/n.

I read there is no need for a ZoneDirector for Layer 2 Roaming because this is implemented in the 802.11 Protocoll. Is this true?

Please clarify.

Thanks.

Kind Regards
Marco

Does Ruckus Unleashed support Fast Roaming 802.11k and r protocols or would I need Zone Director?

We have installed on a large yacht a ZD1100 with 5 x RUC007-72 access points. This has been simply configured with all five having the same SSID and security parameters.
The yacht owner is using this with an iPad to control his on-board entertainment system and complains of drop out when moving around the boat.
Can you help with the  configuration process which would optimise seamless roaming between APs?
