WDS and STP

Using the CLI to Configure WDS

To set the role of the access point radio interface, use the bridge role command from the CLI wireless interface configuration mode. Then, configure the MAC addresses of the child links to other nodes using the bridge‐link child command. If the radio interface role is set to Bridge, the MAC address of the parent node must also be configured using the bridge‐link parent command. To view the current bridge link settings, use the show bridge link command.
