The information in this section assumes you have already configured the remote AP functionality, as described in
Configuring the Secure Remote Access Point Service on page 680.
Understanding Remote AP Modes of Operation
Table 150 summarizes the different remote AP modes of operation. You specify both the forward mode
setting (which controls whether 802.11 frames are tunneled to the controller using GRE, bridged to the local
Ethernet LAN, or a combination thereof) and the remote AP mode of operation (when the virtual AP operates
on a remote AP) in the virtual AP profile.
The column on the left of the table lists the remote AP operation settings. The row across the top of the table
lists the forward mode settings. To understand how these settings work in concert, scan the desired remote AP
operation with the forward mode setting, and read the information in the appropriate table cell.
The “all” column and row lists features that all remote AP operation and forward mode settings have in
common regardless of other settings. For example, at the intersection of “all” and “bridge,” the description
outlines what happens in bridge mode regardless of the remote AP mode of operation.
