WavePro™ WP201 Access Point: User Manual
b. In the AES Passphrase text box, enter a STRONG Passphrase that is known by and
shared only with network devices, WDS nodes in WDS configurations, or Mesh nodes
in Mesh configurations.
c. Click the Mode list box arrow and select Enable to activate the designated profile.
d. In the MAC Address text box, enter the MAC address of the other WDS nodes.
Important!: WDS supports a maximum of four (4) AP MAC addresses.
In a WDS network, the MAC addresses for direct connections must be in the MAC
address tables of the devices that are to communicate directly.
Caution: DO NOT enter all MAC address in all the MAC address tables.
This is to avoid creating a loop within the WDS WP201-100 network.
Example: Using three WDS nodes in the network:
A to B, B to A, A to C, and C to A connect correctly; but B to C and C to B do not because
they create a loop on the MAC layer. The IP layer does not work properly with a loop.
See Wireless Distribution System (WDS) - Bridge Mode (on page 138) for an image of the
correct connections.
e. When the WDS MAC table is changed, especially if a MAC address is changed or
removed from the table, reboot the WP201-100 devices in the network whose MAC
addresses were changed or removed.
11. If applicable, scroll to and complete the procedure: Guest Network Settings - Activate and
Define (on page 100).

12. If applicable, enable these options in the Fast Handover, Management VLAN Settings, and
Cross Band VLAN Pass Through areas:
Note: See the description of the Fast Handover, Management VLAN Settings, and Cross
Band VLAN Pass Through areas (on page 206) for detailed information about the options in
this area.
