AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries User’s Guide

An AP using the Wireless Distribution System (WDS) can function as a wireless network bridge 
allowing you to wirelessly connect wired network segments. The WDS screen allows you to 
configure the AMG1302/AMG1202-TSeries to connect to other APs wirelessly when WDS is enabled. 

Use this screen to set up your WDS (Wireless Distribution System) links between the AMG1302/
AMG1202-TSeries and other wireless APs. You need to know the MAC address of the peer device. 
Once the security settings of peer sides match one another, the connection between devices is 
made. 

Note: WDS security is independent of the security settings between the AMG1302/

AMG1202-TSeries and any wireless clients.
