Configure Wireless Bridging
The wireless access point supports a wireless distributing system (WDS) that lets you build
large bridged wireless networks. You can select from the following wireless access point
modes:
W
ireless point-to-point bridge. In this mode, the wireless access point can
communicate with another bridge-mode wireless station and, as an option, also with
wireless clients. Use WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK to secure the communication. For
information about how to configure this mode, see Configure a Point-to-Point Wireless
Network o
n page 85.
W
ireless point-to-multipoint bridge. In this mode, the wireless access point is the
master for a group of bridge-mode wireless stations. As an option, the wireless access
point can also communicate with wireless clients. You can configure up to four profiles.
The other bridge-mode wireless stations must be set to point-to-point bridge mode, using
the MAC address o
f the master wireless access point. Rather than communicating
directly with each other, all other bridge-mode wireless stations send their traffic to the
master wireless access point. Use WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK to secure the
communication. For information about how to configure this mode, see Configure a
Point-to-Multipoint Wireless Network on p
age 88.
Rep
eater mode. In this mode, this wireless access point operates as a repeater only, and
sends all traffic to a remote access point. Repeater mode does not support
communication with wireless clients, that is, wireless clients cannot associate with the
wireless access point when the wireless access point operates as a repeater. Use WEP,
WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK to secure the communication. For information about how to
configure this mode, see Configure the Wireless Access Point for Repeater Mode on
page 92.
cwMax Enter the Maximum Contention Window (cwMax) value that specifies
the upper limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random
back-off value. Decreasing this value increases the priority of the
queue. The value for cwMax must be higher than the value for cwMin.
Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1023.
The default values are: Data 0: 1023; Data 1: 1023; Data 2: 15;
Data 3: 7.
TXOP Limit Enter the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) value
that specifies the
time interval (in microseconds) in which a client station can initiate
transmissions on the wireless medium (WM). Decreasing this value
increases the priority of the queue. Valid values for TXOP Limit are all
multiples of 32 between 0 and 8192, inclusive of 0 and 8192.
The default values are: Data 0: 0; Data 1: 0; Data 2: 3008;
Data 3: 1504.
