:
• To configure VLAN on the AP device, the global VLAN status should be enabled.
• 'Fragmentation Threshold' and 'Multicast Rate' roll back to their default values when the Operational Mode of the
radio is changed.
• We recommend you to connect the AP Device to a maximum of 35 to 40 clients simultaneously, for better performance
and higher throughput.
B. Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
WDS helps you to establish a wireless link between two BSS and allows the clients of one BSS network to communicate with
the clients of other BSS network. WDS helps in extending the WLAN, where it is difficult to use the wired ethernet to relay the
packets between the networks.
Example: Access Point 1 of BSS1 wants to communicate with Access Point 2 of the BSS2.

This parameter allows you to restrict maximum number of wireless clients that can be
associated with each VAP. A maximum of 128 wireless clients can be connected per radio.
By default, it is 64 for each VAP. To configure, enter a value ranging from 1 to 128.
: A VAP (connected to maximum number of clients) sends a probe response to the
probe request from a new client. But, it responds to the authentication request with
a proper error code, specifying the Max Stations limit.
Tabulated below are the number of clients supported in different security modes, if 'n' is the
number of VAPs enabled on a radio.
* Maximum number of clients per Radio.
* The maximum number of clients supported per VAP in an open authentication mode is 127.
