Netgear DUALBAND WLAN WNDAP360 N300 AP WNDAP360-PES 사용자 설명서

g.  Click Apply to save your security profile settings. The Bridging screen displays 

again.

h.  If the correct profile name and security option are displayed in the table, select the 

check box in the Enable column.

i.  Click Apply in the Bridging screen to save your point-to-point bridge settings.

Configure a second wireless access point (AP2) on LAN Segment 2 (see 

page 90) in point-to-point bridge mode.

AP1 needs to have AP2’s MAC address in its Remote MAC Address field, and AP2 
needs to have AP1’s MAC address in its Remote MAC Address field.

Configure and verify the following settings for both wireless access points:

Verify the LAN network configuration of the wireless access points. Both need to be 

configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices.

Both wireless access points need to use the same channel, authentication mode, and 

security settings.

Verify connectivity across the LAN 1 and LAN 2. 

A computer on either LAN segment should be able to connect to the Internet or share 
files and printers of any other computers or servers connected to LAN Segment 1 or LAN 
Segment 2.

Configure a Point-to-Multipoint Wireless Network

In a point-to-multipoint bridge, the wireless access point is the master for a group of 
bridge-mode wireless access points. All traffic is sent to the master rather than to the other 
wireless access points. Use wireless security to protect this communication.

For each wireless access point that you want the master to be able to connect to, you need to 
configure a security profile with a unique name and the MAC address of the wireless access 
point. You can configure up to four such security profiles (NETGEAR-WDS-1, 
NETGEAR-WDS-2, and so on).

The following figure shows an example in which AP1 functions in point-to-multipoint bridge 
mode and AP2 and AP3 function in point-to-point bridge mode:

IP Address

To verify the connection between the access point and the wireless station that 
you intend to build a bridge with, enter the IP address of the wireless station, 
and then click Link Test. The Link Test Process Status field displays the 
results of the test (Uninitialized, In Process, Success, Timed Out, or Failure). 

You should be able to ping the IP address of both APs from a connected 

client. Failure to ping one of the APs means that the wireless signal is not 
traversing the bridge. Failure to ping both IP addresses means that the clients 
is not connected correctly.
