Configure Wireless Bridge (Wireless Distribution System/WDS)

Description: configure the wireless bridge

Synopsis:

wlan wds [--mode <apwds>] [--

restrict <enableddisabled>]

[--

rmac1 <MACaddress>] [--

rmac2 <MACaddress>]

[--

rmac3 <MACaddress>] [--

rmac4 <MACaddress>]

Options:

--mode <apwds>

Description: configure wireless AP mode.

Default value: ap

--restrict <enableddisabled>

Description: enable or disable bridge restrict mode.

Default value: disabled

--rmac1 <MACaddress> --rmac2 <MACaddress> --rmac3 <MACaddress> --rmac4 <MACaddress>

Description: set remote bridge MAC address

Note:

The “--restrict” option have to be enable before setting any restrict MAC address (--rmac1~4) or the restrict MAC address setting

 

will be ignored.

 

The behavior of WDS is similar to connecting two or more AP using a hub. However, please be aware of the IP assignment to

 

prevent assigning two or more hosts / STAs to the same IP address. To avoid IP address conflict, only enable DHCP server in one

 

router and disable the other router DHCP server.

 

WDS CLI (command line interface) does NOT support Enable(Scan) mode in Bridge Restrict while using WUI (Web UI) does. When

 

Bridge Restrict set to Enable(Scan) mode in WUI, the CLI will show Bridge Restrict disabled.

Example 4:

After example 3, the user want to connect another AP which has DHCP disabled and the MAC address is 00:12:34:56:78:9a

wlan wds --mode wds --restrict enabled --rmac1 00:12:34:56:78:9a
