Verifying Isolation - TBD
b. Activate the link 2 bridge (bridge D) as a non-root bridge and the link1 bridge (bridge C) as a root
bridge and let bridge D associate to bridge C.
c. Observe bridge D’s LEDs and verify that the RSSI signal level is -54 dBm or less. If the signal level
exceeds -54 dBm, move the bridge farther away and repeat this step.
d. Slowly rotate the antenna of bridge D a few degrees to the left and to the right and verify that the
RSSI signal level does not spike above -54 dBm. If the signal peaks above -54 dBm, move the bridge
farther away and repeat this step.
Step 5 After you verify the isolation of the second bridge link, you must properly set the root and non-root
bridge settings for both links, align the link 2 bridge antennas, and verify proper link 2 operation.
