Bridge

The AP is a bridge between your wired and wireless networking devices. As a bridge, the functions performed by the AP include:

•MAC address learning

•Forward and filtering decision making

•Spanning Tree protocol used for loop avoidance

Once the AP is connected to your network, it learns which devices are connected to it and records their MAC addresses in the Learn Table. The table can hold up to 10,000 entries. To view the Learn Table, click on the Monitor button in the web interface and select the Learn Table tab.

The Bridge tab has four sub-categories.

•Spanning Tree

•Storm Threshold

•Intra BSS

•Packet Forwarding
