Building on "Deploying a Single HiveAP" on page 70 , the office network has expanded and requires more HiveAPs to
provide greater coverage. In addition to the basic configuration covered in the previous example, you configure all
three HiveAPs to form a hive within the same layer 2 switched network. The following are the configuration details
for the hive:
• Hive name : hive1
• Preshared key for hive1 communications : s1r70ckH07m3s
HiveAP-1 and -2 are cabled to a switch and use the native ("untagged") VLAN for wired backhaul communications.
They communicate with each other over both wired and wireless backhaul links, the wired link taking precedence.
However, HiveAP-3 only communicates with HiveAP-1 and -2 over a wireless link (see
Figure 2 ).

Note: The security protocol suite for hive communications is WPA-AES-psk.
Note: If all hive members can communicate over wired backhaul links, you can then use both radios for access.
The wifi0 interface is already in access mode by default. To put wifi1 in access mode, enter this command:
interface wifi1 mode access
. In this example, however, a wireless backhaul link is required.

HiveAP1 and HiveAP2 use both wired and wireless
backhaul methods to communicate with each other.
HiveAP-3 uses only a wireless connection for backhaul
communications with the other two hive members.
