Workgroup Bridge
Status
Status Enable or disable Workgroup Bridge function. Workgroup
Bridge can only be enabled when VLAN function is disabled.
Before conf
iguring Workgroup Bridge, make sure all devices
in Workgroup Bridge have the following identical settings.
•
IEEE 802.11 Mode
•
Channel Bandwidth
•
Channel (Auto is not recommended)
Note: It is highly recommended that static channel is
configured on both APs. Do not use Auto channel option
when you enable Workgroup Bridge, as both APs in a
Workgroup Bridge link must be on the same radio
channel. If Auto option is configured, there is chance
two access points run on different channels and
Workgroup Bridge link cannot establish.
Workgroup Bridge and WDS will not work at the same time.
When Workgroup Bridge is enabled, WDS will be disabled
automatically.
Remote AP Settings
SSID Enter the name of the SSID
to which Workgroup Bridge will
connect. Click Site Survey button to choose from the list.
Workgroup Bridge must connect to a remote access point.
Remote MAC
Address
Normally, Workgroup Bridge connects to a remote access
point by matching SSID. When multiple remote access points
have the
same SSID, Workgroup Bridge can connect to
different remote access points.
Optional: You can specify the MAC address of the remote
access point to limit Workgroup Bridge’s connection to a
specific remote access point.
The format is xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
