Back-To-Back Bridging Setup Guide - 3e Technologies International 3e-531AP User Manual

3e-531AP Wireless Access Point
The following chart maps the basic procedure to be followed in con-
figuring the three units as shown above. Essentially, you can follow the
procedure as laid out in the section on point-to-point bridging. It is the
BSSID and the Bridging Encryption that allows the two bridges to com-
municate. Needless to say, the configuration of the access point deter-
mines the functioning of the dependent WLAN.
