f the correct profile name and security option are displayed in the table, select the
check box in the Enable column.
i. Click Apply in th

3. Conf
igure a second wireless access point (AP2) on LAN Segment 2 (see Figure 53 on
page 90) in point-to-point bridge mode.
AP1 needs to have AP2’s MAC address in its Remote MAC Address field, and AP2
n
eeds to have AP1’s MAC address in its Remote MAC Address field.
4. Conf
igure and verify the following settings for both wireless access points:
V
erify the LAN network configuration of the wireless access points. Both need to be
configured to operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices.
Both wireless a
ccess points need to use the same channel, authentication mode, and
security settings.
5. V
erify connectivity across the LAN 1 and LAN 2.
A computer on either LAN segment should be able to connect to th
e Internet or share
files and printers of any other computers or servers connected to LAN Segment 1 or LAN
Segment 2.
Configure a Point-to-Multipoint Wireless Network
In a point-to-multipoint bridge, the wireless access point is the master for a group of
bridge-mode wireless access points. All traffic is sent to the master rather than to the other
wireless access points. Use wireless security to protect this communication.
For each wireless access point that you want the ma
ster to be able to connect to, you need to
configure a security profile with a unique name and the MAC address of the wireless access
point. You can configure up to four such security profiles (NETGEAR-WDS-1,
NETGEAR-WDS-2, and so on).
The following figure shows an example in which AP1 functions in point-to-mul
tipoint bridge
mode and AP2 and AP3 function in point-to-point bridge mode:
Link Test
IP Address To verify the connection between the access point and the wireless station that
you intend to build a bridge with, enter the IP address of the wireless station,
and then click Link Test. The Link Test Process Status field displays the
results of the test (Uninitialized, In Process, Success, Timed Out, or Failure).
Note: You should be able to ping the IP address of both APs from a connected
clie
nt. Failure to ping one of the APs means that the wireless signal is not
traversing the bridge. Failure to ping both IP addresses means that the clients
is not connected correctly.
