Hybrid and multiple repeater configurations
The Nokia A032 is capable of supporting
repeater and bridging functions
simultaneously. In addition, it can support
multiple hops (more than one repeater) as well
as multiple bridge paths:
The above figure shows a combination of
repeater and bridging functions demonstrating
the use of multiple simultaneous functions,
including:
•
Bridging two LANs
LAN A is bridged to LAN B via the wireless
bridges, X and Y
•
Bridging LANs via a repeater
LAN A is bridged to LAN C using wireless
bridge Y as a repeater.
