Bridge Connection, with Access Point
An access point can also be used to establish a bridge connection between WEGs.
A distinction should be made between two cases:
1.
WEGs and access point are only connected to each other wirelessly.
2.
There is a cable connection between a WEG and the access point.
8.1.3.1 WEGs and Access Point wirelessly connected
This scenario is similar to a bridge connection without access point. Both
ETHERNET segments, in which the WEGs are located, are connected to each
other by the bridge connection. If the access point is in a third ETHERNET
segment, then this is not included here, i.e. ETHERNET devices connected to the
access point by cable cannot communicate with devices of the two ETHERNET
segments connected by the bridge connection.
