WDS List
Communication between access points
In normal operation, the access point is used as an interface to a network and communicates
with clients. There are, however, situations in which several access points need to
communicate with each other, for example to extend wireless coverage or to set up a
wireless backbone. This mode is possible with WDS (Wireless Distributed System).
As default, the list is updated every 2 seconds. To disable the update, click "On". Instead of
"On", "Off" is displayed. As default, updating is always enabled on the WBM page.
Note
This WBM page is only available in access point mode.
This page shows information about the WDS connections of the access point.
