4.20 What is Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP)?
The IEEE 802.11f Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP) supports Access Point
Vendor interoperability, enabling roaming of 802.11 Stations within IP subnet.
IAPP defines messages and data to be exchanged between Access Points and
between the IAPP and high layer management entities to support roaming. The
IAPP protocol uses TCP for inter-Access Point communication and UDP for
RADIUS request/response exchanges. It also uses Layer 2 frames to update the
forwarding tables of Layer 2 devices.
4.21 What is Wireless Distribution System (WDS)?
The Wireless Distribution System feature allows WLAN AP to talk directly to
other APs via wireless channel, like the wireless bridge or repeater service.
4.22 What is Universal Plug and Play (uPNP)?
UPnP is an open networking architecture that consists of services, devices, and
control points.
The ultimate goal is to allow data communication among all UPnP
devices regardless of media, operating system, programming language, and
wired/wireless connection.
4.23 What is Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) Size?
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) indicates the network stack of any packet is
larger than this value will be fragmented before the transmission. During the PPP
negotiation, the peer of the PPP connection will indicate its MRU and will be
accepted. The actual MTU of the PPP connection will be set to the smaller one of
MTU and the peer’s MRU. The default is value 1400.

4.24 What is Clone MAC Address?
Clone MAC address is designed for your special application that request the
clients to register to a server machine with one identified MAC address.
Since that all the clients will communicate outside world through the WLAN
Broadband Router, so have the cloned MAC address set on the WLAN
Broadband Router will solve the issue.
