Note: WA6011/6012 can configure two network cards
simultaneously. One is configured in AP mode for WLAN, the other one is
configured in P2P or P2MP mode for wireless bridging among two or more.
To avoid radio interference, configuring two network cards on different
working channels is recommended.
Point To Multi-Point Mode (P2MP)
P2MP wireless network bridging is able to connect several individual remote
networks together. Its network topology is more complicated than P2P. In
P2MP mode, radio signal is sent from one network as the center, other
receiving points receive the signals. WA6011/6012 supports up to six remote
APs’ access.
