4.4.4 Configuring WDS Link Settings
Using WDS Link Settings, you can create a wireless backbone link between multiple access points that are part of the same wireless
network. This allows a wireless network to be expanded using multiple Access Points without the need for a wired backbone to link
them, as is traditionally required.
Security
Select the type of WDS
security: None, WEP, or AES.
WEP Key
Enter the WEP key.
AES Passphrase
Enter the AES
passphrase.
MAC Address
Enter the MAC address
of the Access Point to which you want to
extend wireless connectivity.
Mode
Select Disable or Enable to
disable or enable WDS.
Click
Accept
to confirm the changes or
Cancel
to cancel and return previous
settings.
Note:
You must enter the ENS200EXT’s MAC address in an access point to establish a connection to it. For more information on how to
enter a MAC address in the access point, refer to its documentation. Not all access points support this feature.
