Chapter 1 Overview
Network Deployment Examples
Point-to-Point Bridging
The access points can be used to extend a remote network by using the 5-GHz backhaul radio to bridge
the two network segments as shown in Figure 1-6. To support Ethernet bridging, you must enable
bridging on the controller for each access point.
Figure 1-6 Access Point Point-to-Point Bridging Example
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 1-7). 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 2.4-GHz wireless coverage area might be limited and possibly not suitable for direct
wireless client access.
