Tx Pwr Mode:
It is same as AP, support Off, Fix and Auto modes. At Fix mode, there are 5 signal levels you can
select (1 being the smallest power level). If you want to prevent any radio frequency transmission,
set Tx Pwr Mode to off.
`
Propagation Distance
This parameter relates to adjust the timing of
WLAN MAC. To make sure the radio signal can reach
to the device at other end, set the distance
based on the distance between this bridge and
furthest bridge that is connected to it
`
RTS Threshold
This function uses for the RTS/CTS handshake boundary. When a packet size is greater than
the RTS
threshold, the RTS/CTS handshaking is performed
`
Add Remote’s AP BSSID/Note for manual bridging
The BSSID corresponds to that bridge’s MAC address. The Wireless Bridging uses the BSSID for
purposes of establishing contact. You need to enter the BSSID of remote bridge, enter hexadecimal
with colons. Data entry is not case sensitive. You may also enter a note that defines the location of
the remote bridge. Then click

5.4 Wireless Bridge – Encryption
Click the entry on the left hand navigation panel for
Wireless Bridge -
Encryption
. This directs you to the Wireless Access
Point – Encryption page.
This page is used to configure static encryption keys for the wireless
bridge. On this screen, you can either select
None
(No Data
Encryption) or
Static AES-CCM
(128 bit). The
“Key
generator” function generates a
randomized encryption key of the
appropriate length automatically. You can use
this function to get a randomized key
number from one device and use it to all
of other devices those are on the same
bridge network. The encryption key that
you use on this screen must be the
same for any bridge connect to
yourbridging
network
in
order
for
communication to occur.
