Chapter 3: Initial Access Point Configuration
12 Select an Access Point Mode from the available options.
Router Mode - In Router Mode, the Access Point routes traffic between the local
network (LAN) and the Internet or external network (WAN). Router mode is
recommended in a deployment supported by just a single Access Point.
Bridge Mode - In Bridge Mode, the AP depends on an external router for routing LAN
and WAN traffic. Routing is generally used on one device, whereas bridging is
typically used in a larger network. Thus, select Bridge Mode when deploying this
Access Point with numerous peer APs supporting clients on both the 2.4 and 5GHz
radio bands.
