Chapter 7: Wireless Bridge Configuration
In the 9100MESH, wireless bridging uses a second WLAN card (WLAN2) to set up an independent
wireless bridge connection. Thus, the 9100MESH can work AP and Bridge simultaneously and with no
loss efficiency. Since wireless bridging provides a mechanism for AP to collaborate, it is possible to
extend the basic service set (BSS) of a standalone AP and to connect two separate LANs without
installing my cabling. The 9100MESH model support manual bridge function and
auto bridge mode
.
The manual bridging function in the WH-9100MESH allows you to set a number of alternate bridging
configurations. We discuss some of the most popular settings in this chapter. The auto bridging
function will be discussed at next chapter (Chapter 8).
