Wireless Hops
To create a wireless hop, you must enable one or more
WLIF radios on the distribution LAN as wireless hopping
Masters and then configure the Slave stations (through
[Slave Parms]) to connect to these Masters.
EXAMPLE:
In Figure 4-4, two access points have two WLIF radios. One radio is
configured as a Master to provide the wireless connection to the
distribution LAN. The other radio is configured as a Slave to service
wireless station traffic.

" NOTE:
For best performance, use one or two external antenna kits when
using two WLIF radios. A minimum separation of 10 feet (3 meters)
between antennas is required.
