Wireless Bridge — General
The Wireless Bridge — General screen contains wireless bridging 
information including the channel number, Tx rate, Tx power, spanning 
tree protocol (802.1d) enable/disable, and remote AP's BSSID. This page 
is important in setting up your bridge configuration. Wireless bridging 
supports two modes of operation:
•  Manual wireless bridging
•  Auto-forming wireless bridging (AWB) - with a maximum num-
ber of allowable bridges (the default is 40)
Auto-forming Wireless Bridging
When the wireless bridge is in auto-forming mode, the wireless 
bridge sniffs for beacons from other wireless bridges and identifies APs 
that match a policy such as SSID and channel.
Instead of simply adding the APs with the same SSID/channel to the 
network, a three-way association handshake is performed in order to 
control network access. 
To make a unit the root STP node, set the bridge priority lower than 
any other node in the network.
