AP+Bridge Application
1.3.4 Bridge / Repeater
The ZyAIR can act as a wireless network bridge and establish wireless links with other APs. In
bridge mode, the ZyAIR’s (
A
and
B
) are connected to independent wired networks and have a
bridge (
A
can communicate with
B
) connection at the same time. A ZyAIR in repeater mode
(
C
) has no Ethernet connection. When the ZyAIR is in the bridge mode, you should enable
STP to prevent bridge loops.
When the ZyAIR is in
Bridge/Repeater
mode, you don’t have to enter a pre-shared key, but
the traffic between devices won’t be encrypted if you don’t. The peer bridge must use the same
pre-shared key and encryption method.
The ZyAIR in
AP+Bridge
mode cannot connect to another ZyAIR in
Bridge/Repeater
mode
that uses manual WEP keys with 64-bit or 128-bit WEP encryption.
