WDS WM-AD
In a traditional Summit WLAN deployment, each radio of the Altitude AP can interact with the client
devices on a maximum of eight network WM-ADs.
In WDS deployment, one of the radios of every WDS Altitude AP establishes a WDS link on an
exclusive WM-AD. The WDS Altitude AP is therefore limited to seven network WM-ADs on the WDS
radio. The other radio can interact with the client-devices on a maximum of eight WM-ADs.
NOTE
The Root Altitude AP and the Repeater Altitude APs can also be configured to interact with the client-devices. For
more information, see
"Assigning the Satellite Altitude APs' radios to the network WM-ADs" on page
228.
The WM-AD on which the Altitude APs establish the WDS link is called the WDS WM-AD.
A WDS can be setup either by using either a single WDS WM-AD or multiple WDS WM-ADs. The
following figures illustrate the point.
