Basic Information on Wireless LAN Communication
Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
WDS allows direct connections between SCALANCE W 788 access points. These
are used to create a wireless backbone or to connect an individual
SCALANCE W 788 to a network that cannot be connected directly to the cable in-
frastructure due to its location.
Two alternative configurations are possible. The WDS partner can be configured
both using its name and its MAC address.
