Chapter 1 Overview Network Configuration Examples Wireless Backhaul The access point supports wireless backhaul capability using the 5-GHz radio to bridge to another access point to reach a wired network connection to a controller (see Figure 1-2). The access point connected to the wired network is considered a RAP in this configuration. The remote access point is considered a MAP and transfers wireless client traffic to the RAP for transfer to the wired network.
Chapter 1 Overview Network Configuration Examples Point-to-Multipoint Bridging The access points can be used as a RAP to connect multiple remote MAPs with their associated wired networks (see Figure 1-4). By default this capability is turned-off for all access points. To support Ethernet bridging, you must enable bridging on the controller for each access point. Wireless client access can be provided over the bridging link; however, if bridging between tall buildings, the 2.
Chapter 1 Overview Network Configuration Examples Figure 1-5 illustrates a typical mesh configuration using MAPs and RAPs.
Chapter 1 Overview Network Configuration Examples Layer 2 and Layer 3 Network Operation The access points support Layer 2 or Layer 3 network operation. In Layer 2 configurations, the access point and the controller are on the same subnet and communicate with encapsulated Ethernet frames using MAC addresses rather than IP addresses. Layer 2 configurations are typically not scalable into larger networks. Additionally, Layer 2 operation is supported only by the Cisco 4400 series controllers.
