Controller Protocol Security Enhancement
Controller protocol security enhancement is important for secured provision from Master to Slave. So once
a master with 1.0.2.108 found a slave with an older firmware, it will disable the slave’s Wi-Fi and show the
slave’s firmware version in RED BOLD to remind user to upgrade the slave as shown on figure below.

Client Bridge
The Client Bridge feature allows an access point to be configured as a client for bridging wired only clients
wirelessly to the network. When an access point is configured in this way, it will share the WiFi connection
to the LAN ports transparently. This is not to be confused with a mesh setup. The client will not accept
wireless clients in this mode.
Once a Network Group has an Client Bridge Support enabled, the AP adopted in this Network Group can
be turned in to Bridge Client mode by click the Bridge button .
Please be noted that once an AP it turned into Client Bridge mode, it cannot be controlled by a Master
anymore, and a factory reset is required to turn it back into normal AP mode.

Important Notes:
• The access point that will be operating on bridge mode, must be set with a fixed IP address before
activating the bridge mode on the access point.
• Users must enable client bridge support option under network group or SSID WiFi settings in order
to have it fully functional. See [Client Bridge Support]
