The devices connected to the wired interface of the WAP device, as well as the downstream
stations associated with the access point interface of the device, can access the network
connected by the infrastructure client interface. To allow the bridging of packets, the VLAN
configuration for the access point interface and wired interface should match that of the
infrastructure client interface.
WorkGroup Bridge mode can be used as range extender to enable the BSS to provide access to
remote or hard-to-reach networks. A single-radio can be configured to forward packets from
associated STAs to another WAP device in the same ESS, without using WDS.
Before you configure WorkGroup Bridge on the WAP device, note these guidelines:
•
All WAP devices participating in WorkGroup Bridge must have the following identical
settings:
-
Radio
-
IEEE 802.11 Mode
-
Channel Bandwidth
-
Channel (Auto is not recommended)
See
Radio
(Basic Settings) for information on configuring these settings.
•
WorkGroup Bridge mode currently supports only IPv4 traffic.
•
WorkGroup Bridge mode is not supported across a Single Point Setup.
•
It is not recommended to associate another AP to the downstream interface of the
WAP operating in WorkGroup Bridge mode; that is, the chaining or cascading of APs
is not supported.
To configure WorkGroup Bridge mode:
STEP 1
Select
Wireless
>
WorkGroup Bridge
in the navigation pane.
STEP 2
Select
Enable
for the
WorkGroup Bridge Mode
.
STEP 3
For WAP561 devices, select the radio interface on which to configure WorkGroup Bridge
mode (
Radio 1
or
Radio 2
).
STEP 4
Configure these parameters for the Infrastructure Client Interface (upstream):
•
SSID
—The SSID of the BSS.
NOTE
There is an arrow next to SSID for SSID Scanning; this feature is disabled by
default, and is enabled only if AP Detection is enabled in Rogue AP Detection (which
is also disabled by default).
