4.8.3 WDS Bridge Mode

This mode is also known as “WDS Pure MAC mode”. When configured to operate in the

Wireless Distribution System (WDS) Mode, the AIRMAX DUO LITE provides bridging

functions with remote LAN networks in the WDS system. The system will support up to total
of 8 bridges in a WDS network (by daisy chain). However, each bridge can only associate

with maximum of 4 other bridges in the WDS configuration. This mode is best used when

you want to connect LAN networks together wirelessly (for example, between office and
warehouse). If you have more than 2 AP in WDS Bridges mode, please remember to turn

on the “802.1d Spanning Tree” or “STP” option on to avoid network loop. This mode usually

delivers faster performance than infrastructure mode.
