TEW-753DAP User’s Guide Installation

Wireless Distribuon System

Deploy ONLY mulple TEW-753DAPs in a single DS

(distribuon system). WDS may not work with other

products due to its non-standard nature�

WDS mode is a non-standard extension to the IEEE 802.11 standard to allow

transparent Ethernet bridging on the staon and to implement seamingless

hand-over for wireless clients roaming between dierent access points.

Transparent bridge is also one of the requirement to some layer 2 services

such as DHCP and 802.1X authencaon. Because the WDS implementaon

dierent from product to product, not all WDS enabled products are

interoperable. You have to use mulple TEW-753DAP to build your mesh

wireless DS or transparent bridge.

You can setup TEW-753DAP on dierent WDS modes for your dierent

network planning.

WDS Bridge: In this mode, the selected interface wirelessly communicate to

other WDS bridges to make a wireless backbone. You can make a simple mesh

network with these WDS bridges. To build a WDS link, you have to list the

neighbor’s BSSID (the MAC address) as next hop packet forwarding. Your neig,

vice versa, has to list your BSSID (the MAC Address) as its next hop. Make sure

all access points are congured with the same SSID as a single DS (distribuon

system), wireless channel and wireless encrypon sengs have to be the

same as well.

Wireless Distribution System

WDS Access Point: WDS AP is an outlet of a DS. Pairing with a WDS Staon

you can build a transparent bridge between two DS or from DS to STA. (See

more informaon in “Appendix” on page 53 )

WDS Staon: Pair with WDS AP, you can build a transparent bridge for layer 2

requirements. (See more informaon in “Appendix” on page 53 )
