mixed encryption (TKIP+AES, which is supported in WPA and WPA+WPA2 security modes),
WDS uses AES because it is the stronger encryption method.
To configure WDS, you need to know the MAC addresses of the wireless peers, and you
need to use a common WPA password or WEP key on all peers. (You enter the WPA
password or WEP key in the WPA Password field on the WDS Configuration screen.) You
can configure up to a maximum of four WDS peers.
To enable and configure WDS:
1. Select Network Config > Wireless Settings > WDS Configuration. The WDS
Configuration screen displays:
Figure 345.
2. Select the Enable WDS check box.
3. In the WPA Password field, enter a password between 8 and 63 characters.
4. Click Apply to save your settings.
5. In the Add WDS Peer Configuration section of the screen, enter a MAC address of a peer in
the MAC Address field.
6. Click Apply to add the MAC address to the WDS Peers table.
7. Repeat step 5 and step 6 for any other MAC addresses that you want to add to the MAC
Address table.
