Wireless Distribution System
The WL series of APs use wireless ports to interconnect BSS
areas. WDS is commonly used in areas requiring multiple APs,
where wiring is not possible or costly and for providing back-up
paths between APs. The number of ports on an AP available
for the WDS is dependent on the AP model. The 520wl for
example, allows up to six WDS links. The same frequency
channels must be used on each end of a WDS link. The same
PC card that supports a BSS area can be used for a WDS link.
The packet flow through the WDS is very similar to the
standard DS except it uses the wireless ports instead of the
Ethernet port.
