Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 31 Building a Wireless Network This chapter describes the operating modes of the WM-OAP8251AG.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 32 Chapter 5: Building a Wireless Network This chapter describes the operating modes of the WM-OAP8251AG. 5.1 Access Point Mode In Access Point Mode, WM-OAP8251AG behaves likes a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to associate with the WM-OAP8251AG. The WM-OAP8251AG supports up to eight (8) SSIDs per band at the same time for secure access.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 33 The WM-OAP8251AG can be used as a centralized Outdoor Access Point with which other EnGenius Wireless N 2.4 or 5 GHz Outdoor Client Bridges can associate; leveraging the long-range capability of their internal high-gain directional antennas, resulting in a very cost-effective solution to expand a company network over a multiple building campus.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 34 5.2 WDS AP Mode The WM-OAP8251AG also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the WM-OAP8251AG using WDS technology. In this mode, configure 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 adresses.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 35 5.3 WDS Bridge Mode In WDS Bridge Mode, the WM-OAP8251AG can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security settings of each WM-OAP8251AG 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 WM-OAP8251AG to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following diagram. WDS Bridge Mode can establish up to four (4) 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 configuration can be susceptible to generate endless network loops in your network, so it is recommended to enable the Spanning Tree feature to prevent this from happening.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 36 5.4 WDS Station Mode Station mode expands the WDS by receiving a wireless signal/service and sharing it through the Ethernet port.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 37 5.5 AP Mesh Mode Under the AP Mesh mode, the WM-OAP8251AG can be used as the central connection hub for station or clients that support IEEE 802.11 b/g/n network. Under this mode, the WM-OAP8251AG can be configured with the same Mesh SSID and security password in order to associate with other WM-OAP8251AGs, as well as connect with clients under the same SSID and encryption signatures. For example, you would use one band to connect Access Points in range with Mesh mode and the other band to broadcast traffic on the network.
User Manual Chapter 5 Building a Wireless Network Outdoor Enterprise Access Point WM-OAP8251AG 38 5.6 Mesh Only Mode Under the Mesh-only mode, the WM-OAP8251AG can be configured with the same Mesh SSID and security password in order to associate with other Mesh enabled WM-OAP8251AGs, instead of connecting with clients.
