With the bridge function, you can, for example, make a wireless connection between a
funkwerk Wx002 and one or more other funkwerk Wx002 devices. The range of these
wireless connections can be several kilometres, depending on the antennas used.
Note

• There is no node table for this port (as there are no clients).
• There is no Access Control List (ACL) for this port.
