5.3.4.2 WDS
WDS means Wireless Distribution System. It is a protocol for connecting two access points
wirelessly. Usually, it can be used for the following application:
‹ Provide bridge traffic between two LANs though the air.
‹ Extend the coverage range of a WLAN.
To meet the above requirement, you must set these APs in the same channel and set MAC address of
other APs which you want to communicate with in the table and then enable the WDS.
