4-4. Configuring Relay Function (Pattern B)
Pattern B is a mechanism of communication for a moving client (slave) switching paths with 2 access points.
Difference from the Pattern A lies in availability of communication with any access point, with the same SSID
for AP-1 and AP-2. In the pattern B for smooth connection to an access point after moving, "Smart Roaming"
must be enabled.
Through steps in "4-2. Configuring AP-to-AP Bridging" and the steps from 2 to 6 in "4-3. Configuring
Repeater Function (Pattern A)", communication setup must be completed for AP-1 and CL-1 beforehand.
Using an example below, setup and verification steps are described for the pattern B (P.14) of AP-to-AP
bridging (Relay function).
