Configuration
The configuration of the repeater paths is completed during setup of the Access Point modes. All three Access Point modes
support repeating and Meshing features. The Mesh network configuration using the ESTeem Network Configuration (ENC)
Utility is shown in detail in Chapter 3 of this User’s Manual.
Figure 2: Repeater Configuration Example
You can also configure the Mesh networking directly through the web configuration setup (Chapter 5). Figure 2 shows an
example repeater peer table from the setup menus. For an ESTeem 210 to communicate with another ESTeem 210, select Yes
must at
Enable Repeater Capability
. Next, the Wireless LAN (WLAN) MAC address of each Model 210 that will have direct
communications must be added to the Repeater Peer List. Finally,
enabling the link
allows the corresponding 210 to be included
in the communication routing. Mobile clients do not require input in the repeater peer table. If multiple Mesh routes are
configured, you will also need to set the values for Priority and Path Costs (explained in Spanning Tree below). For multiple
examples of repeater configurations, please refer to Chapter 3 of this user’s manual.
