y

Propagation Distance

This parameter relates to adjust the timing of

WLAN MAC. To make sure the radio signal can

reach to the device at other end, set the

distance based on the distance between this

bridge and furthest bridge that is connected to

it

y

RTS Threshold

This function uses for the RTS/CTS handshake boundary. When a packet size is greater than the RTS

threshold, the RTS/CTS handshaking is performed

y

Add Remote’s AP BSSID/Note for manual bridging

The BSSID corresponds to that bridge’s MAC address. The Wireless Bridging uses the BSSID

for purposes of establishing contact. You need to enter the BSSID of remote bridge, enter

hexadecimal with colons. Data entry is not case sensitive. You may also enter a note that

defines the location of the remote bridge. Then click Add to accept. The remote bridge’s BSSID

will now appear in the Remote AP’s MAC Address section of previous page Wireless Bridge -

General.

7.3 Wireless Bridge - Encryption

This page is used to configure static encryption keys for the wireless bridge. On this screen, you can

either select Off- No Data Encryption or Static AES Key of 128 bit. The “Key generator” function

generates a randomized encryption key of the appropriate length automatically. You can use this

function to get a randomized key number from one device and use it to all of other devices those are

on the same bridge network. The encryption key that you use on this screen must be the same for

any bridge connect to your bridging network in order for communication to occur.
