The SWE 2220 has the ability to operate in various modes. This chapter describes the operating modes of the SWE 2220. Access Point Mode In Access Point Mode, the SWE 2220 behaves like a central connection for stations or clients that support IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/ g/n networks. The stations and clients must be configured to use the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) and security password to associate with the SWE 2220.
WDS AP Mode The SWE 2220 also supports WDS AP mode. This operating mode allows wireless connections to the SWE 2220 using WDS technology. In this mode, configure the MAC addresses in both Access Points to enlarge the wireless area by enabling WDS Link settings. WDS supports up to four (4) AP MAC addresses.
WDS Bridge Mode In WDS Bridge Mode, the SWE 2220 can wirelessly connect different LANs by configuring the MAC address and security settings of each SWE 2220 device. Use this mode when two wired LANs located a small distance apart want to communicate with each other. The best solution is to use the SWE 2220 to wirelessly connect two wired LANs, as shown in the following figure.
Overview The Overview section contains the following options: • Device Status • Connections The following sections describe these options: • The LAN Information section under the Connections link shows Local Area Network settings such as the LAN IP Address, Subnet mask, Gateway, DNS Address, DHCP Client, and STP status.

• The Current 2.4 GHz/5 GHz Wireless Settings section under the Basic link shows wireless information such as Operating Mode, Frequency, and Channel. Since the SWE 2220 supports multiple- SSIDs, information about each SSID and security settings are displayed. Note: Profile Settings is only applicable in Access Point or WDS AP mode.
Connections The SWE 2220 automatically logs (records) events of possible interest in its internal memory. To view the logged information, click the Connections link under the Device Status menu. If there is not enough internal memory to log all events, older events are deleted from the log.
Operation Modes Operation Mode: Use the radio button to select an operating mode. The SWE 2220 supports three operating modes: Access Band Steering: Enable Band Steering to sends 802.11n clients Point, WDS AP, and WDS Bridge. to the 5 GHz band, where 802.11b/g clients cannot go, and Device Settings leaves the 802.11b/g clients in 2.4 GHz to operate at their slower...
