52 AT-WR4500 Series - IEEE 802.11abgh Outdoor Wireless Routers
RouterOS v3 Configuration and User Guide
Property Description
arp (disabled | enabled | proxy-arp | reply-only; default: enabled) - Address Resolution Protocol
disabled - the interface will not use ARP
enabled - the interface will use ARP
proxy-arp - the interface will use the ARP proxy feature
reply-only - the interface will only reply to the requests originated to its own IP addresses. Neighbor
MAC addresses will be resolved using /ip arp statically set table only
disable-running-check (yes | no; default: no) - disable running check. For 'broken' wireless interfaces it
is a good idea to set this value to 'yes'
mac-address (read-only: MAC address; default: 00:00:00:00:00:00) - MAC address of the master-
interface. Specifying master-interface, this value will be set automatically
master-interface (name) - wireless interface which will be used by WDS
mtu (integer: 0..65336; default: 1500) - Maximum Transmission Unit
name (name; default: wdsN) - WDS interface name
wds-address (MAC address) - MAC address of the remote WDS host
When the link between WDS devices, using wds-mode=dynamic
, goes down, the dynamic WDS
interfaces disappear and if there are any IP addresses set on this interface, their 'interface' setting will
change to (unknown). When the link comes up again, the 'interface' value will not change - it will
remain as (unknown)
. That's why it is not recommended to add IP addresses to dynamic WDS
interfaces.
If you want to use dynamic WDS in a bridge, set the wds-default-bridge
value to desired bridge
interface name. When
the link will go down and then it comes up, the dynamic WDS interface will be
put in the specified bridge automatically.
As the routers which are in WDS mode have to communicate at equal frequencies, it is not
recommended to use WDS and DFS simultaneously -
it is most probable that these routers will not
connect to each other.
WDS significantly faster than EoIP (up to 10-
20%), so it is recommended to use WDS whenever
possible.
Example
[admin@AT-WR4562] interface wireless wds> add master-interface=wlan1 \
\... wds-address=00:0B:6B:30:2B:27 disabled=no
[admin@AT-WR4562] interface wireless wds> print
Flags: X - disabled, R - running, D - dynamic
0 R name="wds1" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0B:6B:30:2B:23 arp=enabled
disable-running-check=no master-inteface=wlan1
wds-address=00:0B:6B:30:2B:27
[admin@AT-WR4562] interface wireless wds>
4.3.11 Align
Submenu level: /interface wireless align
Description
This feature is created to position wireless links. The align submenu describes properties which are used
if /interface wireless mode is set to alignment-only. In this mode the interface 'listens' to those
packets which are sent to it from other devices working on the same channel. The interface also can send
special packets which contains information about its parameters.
Property Description
active-mode (yes | no; default: yes) - whether the interface will receive and transmit 'alignment' packets
or it will only receive them
audio-max (integer; default: -20) - signal-strength at which audio (beeper) frequency will be the highest
