Configure the operating mode of the access points:
•
Configure WNAP320 (AP1) on LAN Segment 1 in point-to-point bridge mode with the
remote MAC address of AP2.

Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge mode. The MAC addresses of the adjacent APs are
required in AP2.
•
Configure the WNAP320 (AP3) on LAN 3 in Point-to-Point Bridge mode with the
Remote MAC Address of AP2.

Verify the following parameters for all access points:

address range as the LAN devices.
•
Only one access point is configured in Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge mode, and all the
others are in Point-to-Point Bridge mode.
