24Chapter 4 Building a Wireless Network
25 The EnStationAC has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of the EnStationAC.Access Point ModeInAccessPointMode,EnStationACbehaveslikesacentralconnectionforstationsorclientsthatsupportIEEE802.11a/b/g/nnetworks.ThestationsandclientsmustbeconguredtousethesameSSID(ServiceSetIdentier)andsecuritypasswordtoassociatewiththeEnStationAC.TheEnStationACsupportsuptoeight(8)SSIDsperbandatthesametimeforsecureaccess. WDS AP Mode
26Client Bridge ModeThe EnStationAC essentially acts as a wireless adapter that connects to an access point to allow a system of wireless access to the network in the Client Bridge mode. Since the computers are on the same subnet, the EnStationAC can broadcast to reach all end-devices.If you use the client bridge mode in the EnStationAC, you can use the AP Detection feature to scan for Access Points withinrange.WhenyoundanAccessPoint,conguretheEnStationACtousethesameSSIDandSecurityPasswordasthe Access Point to associate with it.
27WDS AP ModeThe EnStationAC also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the EnStationAC using WDStechnology.Inthismode,conguretheMACaddressesinbothAccessPointstoenlargethewirelessareabyenablingWDSLinksettings.WDSsupportsuptofour(4)APMACaddresses.
28WDS Bridge ModeIn WDS Bridge Mode, the EnStationAC can wirelessly connect different LANs by conguring the MAC address andsecuritysettingsofeachEnStationACdevice.UsethismodewhentwowiredLANslocatedasmalldistanceapartwantto communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the EnStationAC to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following diagram. WDS Bridge Mode can establish up to four WDS links, creating a star-like network. Note: WDS Bridge Mode does not act as an Access Point. Access Points linked by WDS are using the same frequency channel. More Access Points connected together may lower throughput. This conguration can be susceptible togenerate endless network loops in your network, so it is recommended to enable the Spanning Tree function to prevent this from happening.
29WDS Station ModeStation mode expands the WDS by receiving a wireless signal/service and sharing it through the Ethernet port.
