NOTE
After new settings are saved, the corresponding processes may be stopped and restarted. When
this happens, the WAP device may lose connectivity. We recommend that you change WAP
device settings when a loss of connectivity will least affect your wireless clients.

If one or more VAPs are configured to use a MAC filter stored on a RADIUS authentication
server, you must configure the station list on the RADIUS server. The format for the list is

WDS Bridge
With WDS, access points communicate with one another without wires. This capability is
critical in providing a seamless experience for roaming clients and for managing multiple
wireless networks. It can also simplify the network infrastructure by reducing the amount of
cabling required. You can configure the WAP device in point-to-point or point-to-multipoint
bridge mode based on the number of links to connect.

wireless networks. It can also simplify the network infrastructure by reducing the amount of

bridge mode based on the number of links to connect.
In the point-to-point mode, the WAP device accepts client associations and communicates
with wireless clients and other repeaters. The WAP device forwards all traffic meant for the
other network over the tunnel that is established between the access points. The bridge does
not add to the hop count. It functions as a simple OSI Layer 2 network device.

In the point-to-multipoint bridge mode, one WAP device acts as the common link between
multiple access points. In this mode, the central WAP device accepts client associations and
communicates with the clients and other repeaters. All other access points associate only with
the central WAP device that forwards the packets to the appropriate wireless bridge for routing
purposes.
