Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
A Wireless Distribution System (WDS) creates a link between two 4.9 GHz, 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11b/g APs over
their radio interfaces. This link relays traffic from one AP that does not have Ethernet connectivity to a second AP that has
Ethernet connectivity. WDS allows you to configure up to six (6) ports per radio (up to 12 ports in all).
In the WDS example below, AP 1 and AP 2 communicate over a WDS link (represented by the blue line). This link
provides Client 2 with access to network resources even though AP 2 is not directly connected to the Ethernet network.
Packets destined for or sent by the client are relayed between the Access Points over the WDS link.
