AP Commands 321

Usage WLAN mesh services can be used in a wireless bridge configuration, implementing APs as bridge endpoints in a transparent Layer 2 bridge. A typical application of wireless bridging is to provide network connectivity between two buildings using a wireless link.

A Mesh Portal AP serving as a bridge endpoint can support up to five Mesh APs serving as bridge endpoints. A Mesh AP serving as a bridge endpoint picks up packets from its wired port and transfers them to the other bridge endpoint. A simple source/destination learning mechanism is used in order to avoid forwarding packets across the bridge unnecessarily.

When wireless bridging is enabled for a service profile, the APs with the applied service profile serve as bridge peers. When a Mesh AP associates with a Mesh Portal AP through this service profile, the Mesh Portal AP automatically configures the Mesh AP to operate in bridge mode.

Examples The following command enables wireless bridging on service profile sp1:

WSS# set service-profile sp1 bridging enable success: change accepted.
