--- Total WDS bridge links: 14
Radio -
the radio on which the BSS forming the bridging link
is configured
MAC Address - the MAC address of the connected node
Rate - the maximum data transmission rate of the link in
megabits per second.
Because of the radio enhancements and traffic handling
efficiencies defined in the newer standard, bridging links
between radios configured to use 802.11n can show Rate
values higher than the Maximum Rate configured for either
individual interface (refer to Section 3.4.9)
Signal Strength - the strength of the RF signal of the link,
in decibels referenced to milliwatts
Device ID - the unique hexadecimal Fortress-generated
identifier which provides device authentication on the Mesh
Point-secured network of the connected network node
During normal operation, a Device ID of
none is shown for
a Mesh Point that has been detected but for which a Device
ID has not been established (because key establishment is
not yet complete or for a unidirectional link). A Device ID of
none can also indicate mismatched Access IDs between
the current and connected Mesh Points (Section 4.1.16).
State - the bridging status of the connected network node.
Possible values and meanings depend on the Mesh Point’s
current Bridging Mode setting (refer to Section 3.2.1):
