Tx Pwr Mode:

It is same as AP, support Off, Fix and Auto modes. At Fix mode, there are 5 signal levels you can

select (1 being the smallest power level). If you want to prevent any radio frequency transmission,

set Tx Pwr Mode to off.

`

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

`

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

`

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.

5.4 Wireless Bridge – Encryption

Click the entry on the left hand navigation panel for Wireless Bridge -

Encryption. This directs you to the Wireless Access

Point – Encryption page.

This page is used to configure static encryption keys for the wireless

bridge. On this screen, you can either select None

(No Data

Encryption) or Static AES-CCM (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

yourbridging

network

in

order

for

communication to occur.
