Moxa Technologies AWK-1100 Manual Do Utilizador

 

By WDS, two or more LAN segments can be connected wirelessly. As illustrated in the above 
figure, a pair of wireless LAN-to-LAN bridges is used to connect two LAN segments. Since the 
AP is WDS-enabled, it can be used as a wireless bridge. 

NOTE 

An AWK-1100 can have up to 6 WDS links to other APs or wireless bridges. 

 

To enable a WDS link: 

1.  Specify the MAC address of the AWK-1100 at the other end of the WDS link. 
2.  Select the corresponding Enabled check box. 

For example, assume that you want two AWK-1100s with MAC addresses 00-02-65-01-62-C5 
and 00-02-65-01-62-C6 to establish a WDS link. On the AWK-1100 with MAC address   
00-02-65-01-62-C5, set the peer MAC address of port 1 to 00-02-65-01-62-C6 and on AWK-1100 
with MAC address 00-02-65-01-62-C6, set the peer MAC address of port 1 to 00-02-65-01-C5. 

TIP 

Plan your wireless network and draw a diagram so that you know how each AWK-1100 is 
connected to other peer APs or wireless bridges by WDS, and how bridges are connected to other 
peer bridges by WDS. See the following figure for an example network-planning diagram.
