Configuring the Wireless Distribution System
This example shows how to configure a WDS link between two APs. The local
access point is MyAP1 and has a MAC address of 00:1B:E9:16:32:40, and the
remote access point is MyAP2 with a MAC address of 00:30:AB:00:00:B0.
The WDS link has the following settings, which must be configured on both APs:
•
Encryption: WPA (PSK)
•
SSID: wds-link
•
Key: abcdefghijk
