5.4.4 WIRED NETWORKING APPLICATION (BRIDGE)

The serial server of UART-WIFI232-B2 is STA, and works in bridge mode. After the serial server
connecting to AP, the device of the Ethernet port gets the IP address from the AP (as shown in Figure
192.168.1.101). At this point, the entire network treats the serial server as if it were a transparent
device. Communication between PC1 and PC2 is possible without any constraints, as if the serial
server doesn't introduce any limitations or obstacles in their interaction. However, for the
UART-WIFI232-B2 serial server to communicate with other devices, it requires a static LAN IP address
to be configured, such as the example address 192.168.1.10.
