5.2.4 Client Bridge Mode/Client Router Mode (Dual Mode)

Client Bridge Mode/ Client Router Mode lets you connect two LAN segments via a wireless link as though they are on the same physical network. Since the computers are on the same subnet, broadcasts will reach all machines. As a result, DHCP information generated by the server will reach all client computers as though the clients resided on one physical network.

The following figure shows an example of two EOA7530 devices operating in Client Bridge Mode. One EOA7530 uses its 2.4 GHz radio to communicate with a 2.4 GHz Access Point, while the other EOA7530 uses its 5 GHz radio to communicate with a 5 GHz Access Point.

The sections that follow the figure below describe how to configure your EOA7530 for Client Bridge Mode.
