Method” and “Encryption Type” first.
B. Unique Key
In some special applications, you may need to assign different key for each
Master-Slave link instead of the same key for all links. It can be done by setting
up Unique Key per MAC address of Slave Bridge.
Note: It is required to have the same security setting between linked Bridges to
communicate.
Slave Side
Slave Bridge security setting may apply on bridges of “Point-to-Point” network as well as
“Point-to-Multipoint” network.
For a “Point-to-Point” bridging network, 2 bridges to communicate each other need to use
the same key of same encryption type.
For a “Point-to-Multipoint” bridging network, the key and encryption type need to be the same
with Unique Key setting assigned to this Slave Bridge. Or, if there is no corresponding Unique
Key being assigned on Master Bridge, then Slave Bridge should follow the Share Key
assigned on Master Bridge.
