Field Description
WDS Group ID Select the ID associated with the group to configure.
AP MAC Address MAC Address of the AP.
AP Hardware Type The hardware type for the AP.
Priority Spanning Tree Priority for this AP. The priority is used only when spanning tree mode
is enabled.
The priority determines which AP is selected as the root of the spanning tree and
which AP has preference over another AP when multiple equal cost paths exist in the
topology. The lower value for the spanning tree priority means that the AP is more
likely to be used for bridging data into the campus network. You should assign a lower
priority to the APs connected to the wired network than to the satellite APs.
The priority value is rounded down to a multiple of 4096. The range is 0 – 61440, and
the default value is 36864.
