Chapter 7 Configuring Radio Settings
• A universal workgroup bridge configures the access point in workgroup
bridge mode and able to interoperate with other access points. You
must enter the Ethernet client MAC address. The workgroup bridge
associates with the configured MAC address only if it is present in the
bridge table and it should not be a static entry. If validation fails, the
workgroup bridge associates with its BVI MAC address. Also, the
universal workgroup bridge role supports only one wired client.
• (Optional) Select the root access point fallback role. If the wireless
device Ethernet port is disabled or disconnected from the wired LAN,
the wireless device can either shut down its radio port or become a
repeater access point associated to any nearby root access point.

TIP When you enable the role in the radio network as a Bridge/workgroup bridge
and enable the interface using the no shut command, the physical status and
the software status of the interface will be up only if the device on the other
end access point or bridge is up. Otherwise, only the physical status of the
device will be up. The software status of the device comes up only when the
device on the other end is configured and up.
