WDS Bridging and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) Support
A Distribution System (DS) is a network (typically a wired network) that
interconnects separate access points into a single LAN. With WDS, the
interconnection no longer needs to be physically wired. WDS uses the wireless
medium to interconnect separate access points, thereby eliminating the cost and
inconvenience that may hinder wire installations.
A WDS link can be used in a simple point-to-point link, a complex
point-to-multipoint link, or a multilayer topology.
Point-to-Point WDS Link.
The following example shows a point-to-point WDS
link configured between two access points.
Point-to-Multipoint WDS Link.
The following example shows
point-to-multipoint WDS links configured between multiple access points.
