The AP supports 2 operational modes:

yAP/Bridge.

This mode provides both Access Point and Static LAN-to-LAN Bridging functionality.

The static LAN-to-LAN bridging function is supported through WDS (Wireless Distribution System).

yAP Client.

This mode is for Dynamic LAN-to-LAN Bridging. The AP Client automatically establishes bridge links with APs from any vendors.

In either mode, the AWK-1100 forwards packets between its Ethernet interface and wireless interface for wired hosts on the Ethernet side and wireless host(s) on the wireless side.

NOTE	Detailed information about configuring AWK-1100’s Operation Mode is given in Chapter 3.
