Figure 5-6: Multi-Point bridging
1.
Configure the Operating Mode of the WG102 Access Points.
– Configure AP1 on LAN Segment 1 in Repeater mode with the Remote MAC Address of
the ‘downstream’ AP (AP2).
– Configure AP2 in Repeater mode with the MAC addresses of the ‘upstream’ AP (AP1)
and the MAC address of the ‘downstream’ AP (AP3).
– Configure AP3 in Repeater mode with the Remote MAC Address of the ‘upstream’ AP
(AP2).
2. Verify the following parameters for all access points:
• Verify that the LAN network configuration the WG102 Access Points are configured to
operate in the same LAN network address range as the LAN devices
• All APs must be on the same LAN. That is, all the APs LAN IP address must be in the
same network.
• If using DHCP, all WG102 Access Points should be set to “Obtain an IP address
automatically (DHCP Client)” in the IP Address Source portion of the Basic IP Settings
menu.
• All WG102 Access Points use the same SSID, Channel, authentication mode, if any, and
encryption in use.
3. Verify connectivity across the LANs.
