Station 1 relays communications via the ZyAIR within the Multi-ESS coverage area and with AP X if it
moves to the RD ESS coverage area. Similarly, Station 2 relays communications via the ZyAIR within the
Multi-ESS coverage area and with AP Y if it moves to the Sales ESS coverage area.
You cannot configure WPA on your ZyAIR in Multiple ESS mode.

1.3.3 AP + Bridge
In AP+Bridge mode, the ZyAIR supports both AP ( A and B can connect to the wired network through X )
and bridge ( X can communicate with Y ) connection at the same time.
When the ZyAIR is in AP + Bridge mode, the traffic between ZyAIRs (the WDS) is not encrypted. The
security settings on the ZyAIR refer to the traffic between the wireless station and the ZyAIR.
