Bridge
uses the WDS protocol that is not defined as the standard thus compatibility issues
between equipment from different vendors may arise. Moreover, Tree or Star shape
network topology should be used in all WDS use-cases (i.e. if AP2 and AP3 are specified as
the WDS peers of AP1, AP2 should not be specified as the WDS peer of AP3 and AP3
should not be specified as the WDS peer of AP2 in any case). Mesh and Ring network
topologies are not supported by WDS and should be avoided in all the use cases.
