Configure Wireless Bridging - NETGEAR WNDAP360 Reference

Table 25. EDCA Settings (Continued)
Field Description
cwMax Enter the Maximum Contention Window (cwMax) value that specifies the upper limit (in
milliseconds) for the doubling of the random back-off value. Decreasing this value
increases the priority of the queue. The value for cwMax needs to be higher than the value
for cwMin. Valid values are 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, or 1023.
The default values are: Data 0: 1023; Data 1: 1023; Data 2: 15; Data 3: 7.
TXOP Limit Enter the Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) value that specifies the time interval (in
microseconds) in which a client station can initiate transmissions on the wireless medium
(WM). Decreasing this value increases the priority of the queue. Valid values for TXOP
Limit are all multiples of 32 between 0 and 8192, inclusive of 0 and 8192.
The default values are: Data 0: 0; Data 1: 0; Data 2: 3008; Data 3: 1504.

Configure Wireless Bridging

The wireless access point supports a wireless distributing system (WDS) that lets you build
large bridged wireless networks. You can select from the following wireless access point
modes:
• Wireless point-to-point bridge. In this mode, the wireless access point can
communicate with another bridge-mode wireless station and, as an option, also with
wireless clients. Use WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK to secure the communication. For
information about how to configure this mode, see
Network on page 90.
• Wireless point-to-multipoint bridge. In this mode, the wireless access point is the
master for a group of bridge-mode wireless stations. As an option, the wireless access
point can also communicate with wireless clients. You can configure up to four profiles.
The other bridge-mode wireless stations need to be set to point-to-point bridge mode,
using the MAC address of the master wireless access point. Rather than communicating
directly with each other, all other bridge-mode wireless stations send their traffic to the
master wireless access point. Use WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK to secure the
communication. For information about how to configure this mode, see
Point-to-Multipoint Wireless Network
• Repeating the wireless signal. In this mode, this wireless access point repeats the
wireless signal, does not support communication with wireless clients, and sends all
traffic to a remote access point. In this mode, wireless clients cannot associate with the
wireless access point. Use WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK to secure the communication.
