NOTE: WDS Settings is available only under Bridge and AP Repeater Mode.
Bridge uses the WDS protocol that is not defined as the standard, so compatibility issues between equipment from different
vendors may arise. Moreover, Tree or Star shape network topology should be used in all WDS use-cases (that is, if AP2 and AP3
are specified as the WDS peers of AP1, AP2 should not be specified as the WDS peer of AP3 and AP3 should not be specified as
the WDS peer of AP2 in any case). Avoid using mesh and ring network topologies, because they are not supported by WDS.
