A CCESS P OLICY
The Wireless Router provides a MAC address filtering facility. The access
policy can be set to allow or reject specific station MAC addresses. This
feature can be used to connect known wireless devices that may not be
able to support the configured security mode.
Figure 43: Access Policy
The following items are displayed in this section on this page:
◆ Access Policy — The access policy can be set to allow or reject specific
station MAC addresses.
◆ Add a station MAC — Enter the MAC address of the station that you
want to filter. MAC addresses must be entered in the format
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
W IRELESS D ISTRIBUTION S YSTEM (WDS)
The radio interface can be configured to operate in a mode that allows it to
forward traffic directly to other Wireless Router units. This feature can be
used to extend the range of the wireless network to reach remote clients,
or to link disconnected network segments to an Internet connection.
To set up links between units, you must configure the Wireless Distribution
System (WDS) forwarding table by specifying the wireless MAC address of
all units to which you want to forward traffic.
N OTE :
All units in a WDS wireless network must be configured with the
same SSID and use the same radio channel. Also each WDS link must be
configured with the same encryption key on both units in the link.
Up to four WDS links can be specified for each unit in the WDS network.
The following figures illustrate an example WDS network.
Figure 44 shows
the manual set up of MAC addresses for units in the WDS network.
Figure 45 shows the basic configuration required on each unit in the WDS
network.
