WDS Hybrid Mode
WDS hybrid mode includes both WDS
and AP Router mode. WDS Hybrid
mode can act as an access point for its
WiFi Intranet and a WiFi bridge for its
wired and WiFi Intranets at the same
time. Users can thus use the features
to build up a large wireless network in
a large space like airports, hotels or
campus.
The diagram illustrates Gateway 1,
Gateway 2 and AP 1 connected by
WDS. Each gateway has access point
function for WiFi client access.
Gateway 1 has DHCP server to assign
IP to each client hosts. All gateways
and AP are under WDS hybrid mode.
To setup WDS hybrid mode, it need to
fill all configuration items similar to
that of AP-router and WDS modes.
Multiple VAPs
VAP (Virtual Access Point) is function
to partition wireless network into
multiple broadcast domains. It can
simulate multiple APs in one physical
AP. This wireless gateway supports
up to 2 VAPs. For each VAP, you need
to setup SSID, authentication and
encryption to control Wi-Fi client
access.
Besides, there is a VAP isolation
option to manage the access among
VAPs. You can allow or blocks
communication for the wireless
clients connected to different VAPs.
As shown in the diagram, the clients
in VAP-1 and VAP-2 can communicate
to each other when VAP Isolation is
disabled.
