Here is an example of how to configure multi-point bridging. Please fol-
low the instructions:
Figure 5-10: Point to Multi-point Bridge
1. Configure the Operating Mode of the Access Point Access Points.
• Because it is in the central location, set Access Point (AP1) on LAN
Segment 1 to Point-to-Multi-Point Bridge mode. The MAC ad-
dresses of AP2 and AP3 are required in AP1.
• Set Access Point (AP2) on LAN Segment 2 to Point-to-Point Bridge
mode with the MAC Address of AP1.
• Set the Access Point (AP3) on LAN 3 to Point-to-Point Bridge mode
with the MAC Address of AP1.
2. Verify the following parameters for all access points.
• All Access Point Access Points use the same Channel, and security
settings if needed.
• All Point-to-Point APs must have AP1’s MAC address in its AP MAC
address field, and AP1 must have all All Point-to-Point APs’ MAC
addresses.
3. Verify connectivity across the LANs.
• A computer on any LAN segment should be able to connect to the
Internet, or share files and printers with any other PCs or servers
which are connected to any of the three LAN segments.
• Wireless stations will not be able to connect to the Access Point
Access Points in the illustration above. If you require wireless sta-
tions to access any LAN segment, you can add Access Point Ac-
cess Points which are set to Wireless Access Point mode to any
LAN segment.
Note: You can extend this multi-point bridging by adding additional
Access Points which are set to Point-to-Point mode for each additional
LAN segment. Furthermore, you can extend the range of the wireless
network with wireless antenna accessories.
