WIRELESS BRIDGE
The IEEE 802.11 standard defines a Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
for bridge connections between access points. The Wireless-N Access
Point/Repeater can use WDS to forward traffic on links between units.
Up to four WDS links can be specified for the Wireless-N Access Point/
Repeater.
The WDS feature enables two basic functions to be configured in the
wireless network. Either a repeater function that extends the range of the
wireless network, or a bridge function that connects a remote LAN segment
to an Internet connection.
