Network Deployment Examples
Wireless client access is supported; however, if bridging between tall buildings, the 2.4-GHz wireless
coverage area may be limited and possibly not suitable for direct wireless client access.

Access Point Point-to-Point Bridging Example
The access points can also support point-to-point bridging under autonomous mode. In this autonomous
mode, the bridging can be done on the 2.4 or 5 GHz radio, but not both. In this mode, one access point
is designated as the root and the other end is designated as the non-root bridge.

Point-to-Multipoint Bridging
The access points can be used as a RAP to connect multiple remote MAPs with their associated wired
networks. By default this capability is turned-off for all access points. To support Ethernet bridging, you
must enable bridging on the controller for each access point. Wireless client access can be provided over
the bridging link; however, if bridging between tall buildings, the 2.4-GHz wireless coverage area may
be limited and possibly not suitable for direct wireless client access.
