Westermo RM-80 - Manual (Page 6)

6 6193-4201
An Access Point could be used as a “Repeater” unit to connect two RM-80 Clients which
do not have direct reliable radio paths.
Bridge vs Router
Each RM-80 is configured
with an IP address for the
Ethernet side, and
another for the wireless
side.
A Bridge connects
devices within the same
Ethernet network – for example, extending an existing Ethernet LAN. For a Bridge, the IP
address for the wireless side is the same as the Ethernet side.
A Router connects devices
on different LAN’s. The IP
addresses for the Ethernet
and wireless sides are dif-
ferent.
In the above example, the wireless link is part of LAN A, with the Client unit acting as a
Router between LAN A and LAN B. Alternately, the Access Point could be configured as
a Router – the wireless link is then part of LAN B.
