Enable Spanning

(R)STP (Section 8.3.1 on page 144) detects and breaks network

Tree Control (STP)

loops and provides backup links between switches, bridges or

 

routers. It allows a bridge to interact with other (R)STP -compliant

 

bridges in your network to ensure that only one path exists between

 

any two stations on the network. Select the check box to activate

 

STP on the NWA.

 

 

Enable Roaming

Roaming allows wireless stations to switch from one access point to

 

another as they move from one coverage area to another. Select this

 

checkbox to enable roaming on the NWA if you have two or more

 

NWAs on the same subnet.

 

Note: All APs on the same subnet and the wireless stations must

 

have the same SSID to allow roaming.
